The Rick Ross Scandal


A few weeks ago pictures surfaced that showed Rick Ross in a uniform making people think that the rapper was once a prison guard. He is denying it saying the picture was photoshopped.Other sources, however, have confirmed this rumor. (one being Trick Daddy, who is another miami rapper.)also SmokingGun.com posted this from the DOC:
"Department of Corrections (DoC) records show that Ross, whose raps detail the Miami gangster lifestyle and his supposed days trafficking cocaine, did, in fact, work as a correctional officer for 18 months. Ross (real name: William Leonard Roberts) was appointed a prison guard in December 1995 at a salary of $22,913.54, according to the below personnel record, which was provided to TSG by Jo Ellyn Rackleff, a DoC spokesperson. The rapper’s social security number is identical to that of the jail guard. According to the official document, Ross was earning $25,794.34 when he left the department in June 1997"
