Last week, it was reported that Lil Nas X faced four felony charges following an altercation with police officers. However, he has now pleaded not guilty to these charges.
According to Reuters, the GRAMMY-winning artist, whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill, has been charged with four offenses: battery of three police officers and resisting an officer. His bail was fixed at $75,000 USD, and the judge also mandated that he must enroll in an outpatient drug rehab program.
If convicted, Lil Nas X could spend up to five years in prison.
Despite claims by authorities that the artist was on drugs during the incident, his legal representative, Christy O’Connor, refuted these allegations, stating instead that it was merely a strange occurrence in an otherwise successful career.
In the early morning light of August 21st, Lil Nas X was spotted strolling down the streets of Studio City, Los Angeles, only dressed in his undergarments and a set of cowboy boots. Law enforcement officials alleged that he aggressively approached them when they tried to apprehend him.
