Wiki, Bio, Family, Siblings, Childhood & Education

Pearson was born on May 18, 1980, in Baltimore, Maryland, to two imprisoned drug addicts. She was raised in a foster home in East Baltimore. Her birth condition was one that no one expected her to survive, as she was born prematurely weighing only 3 pounds. She rarely had the opportunity to interact fully with her biological parents because her mother was a crack addict and her father was an armed robber. Because of her parents’ situation, she adopted the surname of her foster family. Grace After Midnight, a memoir, reveals all of this.

She began dealing drugs when she was 14 years old. Snoop The Wire was always a tomboy. She was sentenced to prison for second-degree murder at the age of 14 after shooting a girl named Okia Toomer. That is how she came to be a member of the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women in Jessup, Maryland. Nonetheless, she was released six and a half years later.

At the age of 18, her life changed due to Arnold Loney. Arnold, a local drug dealer who provided for her and sent her money to prison, was shot and killed. He’d given her the moniker Snoop. Pearson obtained her GED while incarcerated. She landed a local job fabricating car bumpers after her release in 2000, but this did not last long. She was fired after two weeks of service when her employer discovered she had a criminal record.
