Singer Lauryn Hill Released from Prison
Served three months for tax evasion
Lauryn Hill's attorney says she has been released from federal prison after serving time for failing to pay taxes.
Hill left the facility in Danbury, Conn., on Friday. Her attorney Nathan Hochman says he hasn't had a chance to speak to his client yet.
Hill pleaded guilty last year to not paying taxes on more than $1.5 million earned from 2005 to 2007. She was sentenced in July to serve three months. Under terms of her plea agreement, she'll spend the next three months under home confinement. She lives in South Orange, N.J.
