Lil Wayne's tour bus shooter is reportedly appealing his 20-year sentence.

A month ago, the man who allegedly shot up Lil Wayne's tour bus, Jimmy Winfrey, was sentenced to 20 years-- ten would be served behind bars, and another ten on probation. Although he pleaded guilty to six of the charges brought against him, Winfrey is now appealing the 20-year sentence, according to Bossip.

Apparently Winfrey is upset with the sentence, and is demanding the judge overturn it. His lawyer filed documents for the appeal on December 18th, and along with appealing the sentence, he's apparently also appealing his guilty plea-- it seems he's had a change of heart.

Although we thought this story was wrapped up, it appears that's not the case. We'll keep you posted on new developments.
