Cunningham, originally from Southwest Philadelphia, lived for a time in a house in Sicklerville, Camden County, that she said Phillips used as a stash house for the millions of dollars in cash his drug operation generated.
Phillips, 39, was sentenced to five consecutive life terms by Joyner last week following his conviction on murder, drug dealing, conspiracy, and money-laundering charges.
Cunningham was one of the key witnesses against him during a three-month trial that ended earlier this year.
But her cooperation, Joyner said, had to be balanced against the major role she played in helping Phillips distribute thousands of kilograms of cocaine over an eight-year period beginning in 1999.
Cunningham and several family members in the courtroom, including her mother and her young daughter, were reduced to tears during the hearing.
But Joyner said the family support that he saw in his courtroom Tuesday had been rejected by Cunningham while she "hung out with the bad guys . . . lived with the bad guys . . . played with the bad guys."
"And now you sit here crying," Joyner said.
"You weren't crying then. You were styling and profiling."
During the trial, she testified that she was Phillips' girlfriend during most of his eight-year run as a cocaine kingpin. She admitted making major drug pickups, setting up deals with local drug traffickers, and helping Phillips count and launder millions of dollars.
Authorities have said a conservative estimate placed a value of $30 million on Phillips' operation, which stretched from Mexico to New York. Testimony during the trial indicated the actual value was much higher.
The couple drove expensive cars, lived in lavish homes, attended major sporting events, and took extravagant vacations while amassing tens of millions of dollars dealing cocaine, according to evidence and testimony.
