A federal judge in Philadelphia sentenced Beanie Sigel to three months in prison on Friday after he gave a false urine sample to probation officials, according to the Philadelphia Daily News.
Sigel also reportedly tested positive for Xanax and Percocet this month.
After violating supervised release, Sigel had been serving a six month term in a halfway house.
Sigel told the judge that he is an addict and relapsed when he was sent to the halfway house. Sigel added that being confined to the halfway house and not being able to travel for big income shows triggered the relapse, and that he was feeling a large amount of financial pressure and feared losing his home.
U.S District Judge R. Barclay Surrick was not sympathetic.
"I told you the last time if you didn't toe the line, jail was the only option," Surrick told Sigel.
