More than a week after police raided Sean Kingston's South Florida home, he has now been officially booked into the Broward County jail.

The rapper/singer and his mother are accused of defrauding businesses and individuals out of more than a million dollars in goods and services. The singer consented to be extradited to Florida after being first detained at Fort Irwin on May 23.

His mother, Janice was arrested the same day ... getting taken into custody amid the raids on her son's rental home.

As we reported ... Kingston is facing a mountain of charges -- including perpetrating an organized scheme to defraud several companies, grand theft, identity theft, fraud, and other crimes involving a jeweler, an exotic car dealer, and several other businesses.

This isn't Kingston's nor Turner's first run-in with the law. Remember, the singer was previously serving a 2-year probation sentence for a case involving the trafficking of stolen property.

As for his mother ... back in 2006, she pled guilty to bank fraud for stealing over $160k and served almost a year and a half in prison. She's currently out on bail ... posting a hefty bond to secure her release.


There's certainly more to come ... stay tuned.
