TMZ reports that X is expected to receive a minimum 90 days in jail, and will receive no credit for time served.The theft charge stems from an April arrest for allegedly using a fake name when being treated at a Scottsdale hospital. He was indicted on felony charges of theft and taking someone's identity.
