If you’ve ever been to Arizona, you’d know that the temperatures are extreme. One of America’s worst prisons, Tent City is actually an outdoor prison that consists of a collection of hundreds army-issued tents, surplus from the Korean War. The bad news: it’s in Arizona’s “Tent City.” Its warden and sheriff of Maricopa County, Joe Arpaio, called the prison a “concentration camp.” Her sentence was a possible nine years, but the good news is that she only has to serve two months in county jail. It seems that Sky may be getting her jail mail soon, except that in a twist of fate, she would be the one sending it from the inside. Sometimes inmates reach out to her through snail mail, usually just because they would like to talk to someone in the outside world and experience some normality, even if it’s through pen and paper. Now if that’s not love, a man in Harlem parting with his beloved Jordans, I don’t know what is!Įarlier in the show, Sky was reading a letter, her weekly jail mail. Teddy even sold his shoes–two pairs of 2014 Jordans worth more than 500 dollars together–to give her bail or commissary money. The others were probably there in spirit, but for one reason or another couldn’t make the trip out west. In that way, it’s great that her Black Ink Family–Ceaser, Dutchess, and Teddy–were there for her, even though she didn’t get to see them. So why are our tax dollars paying for putting people like Sky in jail?īobby, who is supposed to be Sky’s boyfriend didn’t come out to see her, even though, ironically, she corresponded with him while he was in jail, and even picked him up from jail.Īs Sky says, only your family sticks by you during this time. I can think of at least a few killers who are walking around free. Surely, there are better things to do with our tax dollars–like put murderers in jail. Who knows why they would go to so much trouble to apprehend a non-violent offender thousands of miles away? I guess the state was in need of money, or more likely, they had seen Black Ink and wanted publicity. It was only when she traveled to Atlanta, as she regularly does, that two US marshals came and knocked on her door to take her back to Arizona. Afterwards, she was expected to remain in Arizona to be on probation. When the traditional doors of eking out a living are closed, new doors open, though these doors might be against the grain of the law, which we know is ever changing to remain against the grains of Blacks in America.įor the credit card fraud, she was sentenced to one year. She was on her own, didn’t have any money, and was surrounded by hustlers. The fraud was a crime she committed solely for one reason: she needed the money. Just 10 years ago, Sky got caught committing credit card fraud in Arizona. If she has to pay for an attorney, it must be serious. They immediately notice that this lawyer isn’t a court appointed attorney–he looks like he has big money and wears a nice suit. They can’t actually see Sky because she is in custody and can’t receive any visitors. Upon arriving to Arizona, they meet with Sky’s lawyer. They also experienced some over 100 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures in the process. Why is Sky in Jail and how long will she stay there? It turns out that Ceaser, Dutchess, and Teddy traveled all the way to Arizona to get answers to that very question. The shop owner then chronicled the sequence of events that led to her surprise firing, recalling that his ex-girlfriend and alum Dutchess Lattimore got upset with Sky for helping Ceaser after their breakup.The scene that had been eluded to since the beginning of the season is now here this week: with Sky wearing a black and white shirt with thick horizontal stripes, an old-school chain-gang style jail uniform. Ceaser accuses Viacom of doing Sky Days ‘dirty’Īdditionally, the New York native claims that Sky not returning to TV yet only has to do with her refusal to work with Viacom, the network that airs the reality show, anymore. However, he didn’t give any more insight into the potential program. Ceaser claimed he already has “offers” to film another show with Sky and plans to follow through on the opportunity. Three months after his firing, Ceaser sat down with Math Hoffa, where he talked about his experience with the show and plans for the future.Īccording to the shop owner, he has upcoming ventures that he hopes don’t overshadow the Black Ink Crew franchise, which includes spinoffs Chicago and Compton, and the new season that features him has already finished filming. “Sometimes people don’t know how to love each other” ?Ĭan you blame Sky for what she did given her past? #BlackInkCrew /2AZb36TxDR- Black Ink Crew February 27, 2020
