TI wife slams prison officials over release issues

Rapper TI's wife has slammed prison authorities for taking her husband back into police custody less than a day after his release.

TI was released from custody on Thursday in Arkansas, after serving 11 months' imprisonment on drug charges, and told to report to a halfway house in Atlanta.

However after making the 375-mile journey in a lavish tour bus, TI was taken back into custody in Atlanta over issues surrounding his method of transportation.

"This is a bunch of bulls**t," the rapper's wife Tiny Cottle told TMZ. "They should have said something before he got on the bus. TI would have politely gotten into a van."

Cottle claimed that the authorities are intentionally trying to humiliate the rapper, but insisted that TI will remain strong until his full release at the end of the month.

"TI is one of the strongest individuals I know, and they just try to break him in more ways than one and it's not gonna work," Cottle added. "Cause what God got for him, can't no man take that away."

TI is expected to receive his full release on September 29.
