In August 2022, the Adams County, Ohio Sheriff's Department searched Foreman's home while he was in Chicago, on suspicion of kidnapping and drug trafficking. Nothing was found, and Foreman said he had had nothing more in his house than the ends of a few blunts and unused pipes made for him by fans. No charges were laid.[16]
-----
The police search damaged his door, external gate, and security system which cost over $20,000 to repair. Officers also seized over $5,000 of cash, which was returned with $400 missing.[16]
-----
He recorded three songs criticizing the raid, titled "Will You Help Me Repair My Door", “Lemon Pound Cake" (set to the tune of Under the Boardwalk by The Drifters, and subsequently the name of his album) and "Why You Disconnecting My Video Camera." He released three music videos on December 29, 2022, composed primarily of security camera recordings of the raid.[20] On March 14, 2023, seven Adams County police officers sued Foreman, alleging that his use of the video of the raid invaded their privacy.[21] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afroman

The suit against Afroman by the officers for invasion of privacy is now underway. And it is hilarious. He is as entertaining in trial as he is on stage. And his attorney is also a star.

Update: Lawsuit against Afroman is dismissed
