La-Di-Da-Di! Slick Rick's Being Pardoned!!!
from Yahoo! News

New York Governor David Paterson is about to grant Slick Rick a pardon. Slick Rick served time in the 1990s for the attempted murders of two men. Homeland Security has been trying recently to get Rick the Ruler deported as part of their program to deport foreigners convicted of violent felonies, and the pardon should help stop the proceedings. Whether this bold decision will go over well with the citizens of New York who are not old school hip-hop fans is another story.
