Laura Italiano of the NY Post reports "Trevor Smith, 35, of Baldwin, LI - has managed to stay out of jail despite a lengthy New York rap sheet - including a probation sentence in 1999 for possessing a loaded illegal handgun. Yesterday's sentencing covered his August 2005 kicking of fan Roberto Lebron after Lebron accidentally spit on a car in Busta's entourage at West 19th Street and Sixth Avenue. It also covered his December 2006 beatdown of his former driver, Eddie Hatchet, with whom he was arguing over back pay, as well as his admission to driving drunk on 11th Avenue in March 2007, and a minor license suspension. Cops seized a machete from Busta's car when he was arrested in 2006 - a weapon the rapper yesterday said he won't be reclaiming from cops."
