October 26, 1994 Circuit Judge Lawrence Glazer of Lansing, Mich., sentenced Shakur to 30 days in jail, but suspended 20 days on the condition that Shakur complete 35 hours of community service. Shakur pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge in September for menacing a local rapper during an unruly concert at Michigan State University in April 1993. Shakur, dressed in black and visibly angry at times, told Glazer he didn't swing the bat. Glazer said the threat was enough to justify jail time.
