Last year a judge granted former reality TV star Brittish Williams' request to push her surrender date back so she could spend one last Christmas with her daughter before turning herself in to serve a four year prison sentence on fraud charges [click here if you missed that].
Brittish was arrested after failing to turn herself in...
From Radar Online
Basketball Wives star Brittish Williams did not check into prison on the date she was ordered to surrender.
According to court records obtained by RadarOnline.com, hours before she was scheduled to turn herself in on January 3, the reality star asked a court to reduce her 4-year prison sentence to 2.6 years.
Following her sentencing, Williams accused the judge of hitting her with a harsh sentence due to her being a celebrity. She filed an appeal of the 4-year sentence.

Two days later, Williams asked the court to extend her surrender date — after failing to check in on January 3. She said she was due to surrender to Alderson FPC on January 3, 2024, but was “unable to report as ordered.”
She asked that the court postpone her surrender date until a decision was made on her motion to reduce her sentence. Williams argued it could “eliminate the need” for her to be transported back and forth between the prison in West Virginia and the court in Missouri.
The governed opposed the motion to reduce Williams’ sentence and argued the 4 years behind bars was appropriate. Prosecutors argued that “even if Williams did qualify for a potential reduction, the Government would oppose relief because she failed to report to the Bureau of Prisons as directed and she already received a more than generous disposition by way of the dismissal of counts carrying six years of consecutive mandatory minimums at the time of the original sentencing.”
Then, days later, court records stated Williams was arrested on January 12. Details of the arrest are unclear at the time. The Federal Bureau of Prisons does not currently list Williams as an inmate at Alderson.
