Sean Kingston has been sentenced to three and a half years in prison by a Florida court for a $1m wire fraud scheme, according to NBC South Florida.

The 35-year-old singer, born Kisean Anderson, was found guilty in a South Florida court in March alongside his mother, Janice Turner, for accruing about $1m worth of luxury items through falsified payments that never cleared. Turner was sentenced in July to five years in prison with three years of probation.
