IN TODAY'S 'THIS HEFFAH, HERE' NEWS: FOXY BROWN ALLEGEDLY SENTENCED TO 76 DAYS IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT @ RIKERS.

Does temporary loss of hearing affect one's brain cells? Or has Foxy Brown become more mentally-challenged than she already is? And why am I not surprised over the fact that she has been sentenced to 76 days in solitary confinement due to her violent outbursts and what not? I mean, really. And folks said Maia Campbell was/is crazy. After reading about Foxy's shenanigans, I'm not so sure. But, I'll have more on Maia later.

For all of Foxy Brown's missed court dates, probation violations and altercations over the past three years, the judge hearing her case, Melissa C. Jackson, provided the troubled rapper with a reasonably long leash. It was only after repeated warnings that Jackson sentenced the Brooklyn artist to a year in prison. The staff at the Rose M. Singer facility, however — where Brown has been jailed since August 22 before her sentencing— don't seem to be as patient. The rapper's manager, Chaz Williams of Blackhand Entertainment, confirmed to MTV News that Foxy has been ordered into solitary confinement, although he did not confirm some details that the New York Post reported on Wednesday (October 23). The paper said Foxy is set to remain in solitary for 76 days due to three separate infractions that occurred over the past 30 days, according to a source.

The first of the three incidents that Brown is being disciplined for occurred October 3, according to the Post, when the rapper and another female inmate got into a scuffle that had to be broken up by prison officials. The next day, Brown was accused of verbally assaulting officials and refusing to take a mandatory drug test.The Department of Correction reviewed matters and placed the rapper in "punitive segregation." She is only permitted to leave for one hour each day to see visitors, meet with her attorney or partake in a limited number of recreation options. The other inmate involved in the fight was given 11 days of solitary confinement.

The infractions do not include her recent late arrival to a court date in Brooklyn. She allegedly refused to leave her cell until she'd changed into a different outfit and applied makeup, leading her to miss a bus scheduled to transport her to the courthouse. She then refused to leave the facility without eating lunch first.
