Jacob The Jailbird
 

Unfortunately for Jacob the Jewelry, having your name-dropped in countless rap songs holds little cache in the court of law. That's why the jeweler, a favorite of rappers and the bane of their financial advisers' existences, was just sentenced to 2.5 years in prison for lying to federal agents who were investigating the Black Mafia Family. He was originally accused of laundering $270 million dollars for the crime organization before striking a plea deal. [Vibe]

You can kill ,rape and or molest someone and not do time. Lie to the feds or don't pay taxes and you are going to spend some time in jail.
