After his nude walk and an attack on police officers, Lil Nas
In August 2025, a sensational incident occurred involving Lil Nas X. The 26-year-old was walking through Los Angeles early in the morning. The strange thing is that he initially only wore underwear and boots before he was completely naked.
The police stopped the artist to arrest him. However, he fought back and injured three officers. At the time, various US media outlets published videos of the incident, which resulted in charges of assault and resistance to state power. Now the final verdict is known.
No prison sentence
The confrontation with the police led the “Industry Baby” interpreter to court. As a possible consequence, there was even a prison sentence – but he was now able to avoid this.
A judge in the US state of California allowed the rapper to enter a mental health diversion program for treatment. This was announced by the public prosecutor’s office. Lil Nas X must comply with this measure for two years. If he violates this, he could face five years in prison.
The Grammy award winner’s lawyer also stated that her client had already visited a therapy clinic for mental health treatment of his own accord after his arrest. No information was given about any reasons for the musician’s psychological problems.
