50 Cent Faces Arraignment on Domestic Violence Charges

50 Cent faces arraignment on charges that he attacked his ex-girlfriend and trashed her condo. The hearing for the rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, was scheduled for today (Monday).

If convicted, the rapper faces up to five years in jail and $46,000 in fines.

The judge read out the protective order against him, which prohibits 50 from possessing any guns. He’s also prohibited from contacting Daphne Joy in any way, and can’t come within 100 yards of her. As for the domestic violence charges, 50 pled not guilty.

The woman told police that during a June 23 argument, Jackson began destroying property at her Toluca Lake condo before she locked herself in a bedroom. She says Jackson kicked open the bedroom door and kicked her, causing injury.

Police estimated about $7,100 in damage to the home.

The woman told police she had been in a three-year relationship and has a baby with Jackson, who has referenced drug dealing and violence in many songs.
