Lil Nas X lawyer shared that the rapper was in treatment after his arrest and crime charges last month.
In August, Lil Nas X, whose real name is Montero Hill, was arrested after being found wandering by Ventura boulevard at Studio City, almost naked and apparently delusional. At the time, the police took him to the hospital for a possible overdose before spending the weekend in prison. He then pleaded not guilty to the four accusations of crime filed against him.
After the rapper’s lawyers appeared on Monday in court, they later spoke with the press outside the Los Angeles courthouse, where lawyer Drew Findling shared: “Obviously, you heard the word of treatment.”
“We do what is best for Montero from a personal point of view and a professional point of view, but especially for his well-being,” continued Findling in a video captured by Rolling Stone ‘S Nancy Dillon. “He is surrounded by an incredible family, an incredible team of people who care about him and to love him. We just approach these problems. It’s really as simple as that. He has had a good life, he will continue to have a big life. It is a bump that he will overcome.” And on his behalf, his family ensures that he is addressed to all these problems.
Lil Nas X lawyers did not share the details surrounding his treatment.
Earlier in the courtroom on Monday, Roller reported that the judge of the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, Shelielie Samuels, modified the conditions of the liberation of the rapper for the current hospital care, affirming: “The defendant is authorized to remain outside the state as long as he remains in treatment.”
The rapper was charged with battery and resolution of a law enforcement agent and was released from prison last month after depositing $ 75,000. He told fans later on his Instagram story: “Your daughter will be fine.”
“She’s going to go well,” he continued. “Damn, it was fucking terrifying. It was terrifying. It was a terrifying last four days, but your daughter will go well.”
The next judicial date of Lil Nas X is set for November 18.
