The Louisiana State Penitentiary (LSP, also known as Angola, and nicknamed the  Alcatraz of the South  and  The Farm ) is a maximum security prison farm in Louisiana operated by the Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections.
Rapper Lil' Boosie has been released from the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola, where he had been serving an eight-year sentence on drug charges. Warden Burl Cain says the 31-year-old rapper -- whose real name is Torrence Hatch -- left the prison just after 7 p.m. Wednesday. Cain said Hatch remains on supervised parole until 2018. Hatch first arrived at Angola in 2009 after pleading guilty to a third-offense marijuana possession charge.
