Lawsuit by Ohio cops against Afroman saw some action on 4/20, appropriately, the day after the ACLU filed a motion asking the judge to dismiss the case
The lawsuit by deputies in Adams County, Ohio against rapper Afroman, known for his hit “Because I Got High," had a pretrial scheduling call on April 20, appropriately enough.
While charges were never filed against Afroman, the deputies involved are suing the rapper for using his own security footage on Instagram, on T-shirts, and in music videos for a new album titled Lemon Pound Cake. They allege the rapper used their image and likeness without permission, causing the officers to suffer “humiliation, ridicule, mental distress, embarrassment and loss of reputation."Cincinnati EnquirerAfroman's lawyer, meanwhile, told the paper, "He's a free spirit.
The raid, which Afroman said caused extensive damage to his home, recovered only cash, a few joints, a vape and some hemp. Officials at the time said the raid was part of an “ongoing investigation” into possession of drugs, drug paraphernalia, money and weapons associated with drug trafficking and kidnapping.
