Sean Kingston has been sentenced to three and a half years in federal prison for his role in a $1 million fraud scheme.
On Friday, before US Judge David Leibowitz handed down Kingston’s sentence in a South Florida courtroom, the rapper, 35, apologized and claimed he had learned from his actions, according to the Associated Press.

However, Leibowitz denied Kingston’s attorney’s request to self-surrender at a later date due to health issues, instead ordering the musician to be taken into custody immediately.
Kingston, who was wearing a black suit and white shirt, removed his jacket to be handcuffed and was escorted out of the courtroom.
In March, Kingston, born Kisean Paul Anderson, and his mother, Janice Eleanor Turner, were each found guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and four counts of wire fraud.
Turner, 63, was sentenced last month to five years in prison.
