Beanie Sigel's plan to leave jail up in the air.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Rapper Beanie Sigel's plan to leave jail for drug treatment was thrown into doubt after an alleged shooting victim and his girlfriend testified that they had been receiving threats about the case.
Following hearings in state and federal courts, Sigel's bail situation remained unresolved and was headed for another state hearing Monday.
Sigel, a 29-year-old South Philadelphia native, has a pending drug and gun case in federal court and two pending cases in state court, including an attempted murder charge.
Terrance Speller, who was allegedly shot by Sigel, and his girlfriend testified Friday morning that they had received daily threats about the case. None came directly from Sigel, they said.
``They received phone calls from people on a daily basis, (saying) that their lives are in danger because of their cooperation in this case,'' prosecutor Deborah Robinson said.
Sigel allegedly shot Speller outside a West Philadelphia strip club on July 1, when he was out on bail for allegedly punching a man outside a Chinese restaurant.
Sigel attorney Brian McMonagle dismissed the alleged threats as rumors.
Earlier Friday, a state judge revoked bail, but then vacated that order pending a federal hearing. A federal judge asked for clarification of the order later Friday before moving forward, Assistant U.S. Attorney Curtis Douglas said.
Sigel, who was born Dwight Grant, has been held in federal custody without bail since July 14, but on Thursday he won the right to attend a residential treatment program for drug and alcohol abuse and anger management.
To attend the program, Sigel had agreed to post a $1 million federal bond, including $150,000 in cash, his $400,000 suburban Philadelphia home and four other properties.
He hoped to go home after the four-week program to finish up work on a third solo album, ``The B-Coming,'' which had been scheduled for release this month, as well as other projects.
Defense lawyer Fortunato N. Perri Jr. didn't immediately return a phone message Friday.
Sigel, whose solo albums have sold more than 1 million copies, missed most of a summer ``Roc the Mic'' tour with Jay-Z, Memphis Bleek and other Roc-A-Fella label stars after he was taken into federal custody.
The federal charges stem from an April 20 traffic stop in which Sigel allegedly tossed a semiautomatic pistol from a Cadillac Escalade. As a convicted felon he is not allowed to carry a gun.
