Report: Rick Ross Worked as a Florida Corrections Officer

The Smoking Gun has once again exposed one of hip-hop’s biggest stars, this time revealing that Rick Ross has been lying about his past job of being a corrections officer. Ross has always denied he was ever a C.O., and when a photo of Ross in his officer’s uniform was unearthed, the Miami rapper said “online hackers” put “my face when I was a teenager in high school on other peoples’ body.” Ross then dared someone to find concrete evidence that he was ever a C.O. Well, the Smoking Gun found that evidence. SG unearthed a personnel record showing that Ross served 18 months as a corrections officer at the South Florida Reception Center in Dade County. The rapper’s social security number also matches the digits seen on the personnel record, which shows the rapper’s real name as William L. Roberts. The revelation that Ross worked for the Department of Corrections may have some damaging effects on Ross’ street cred, as the rapper previously bragged that he trafficked cocaine before he “came out of nowhere and just took over the streets.” The Smoking Gun previously exposed Akon as a faux-felon.
