'Terrifying': Lil Nas X Takes to Social Media After Arrest and Bail Release

Lil Nas X faces four felony charges including battery on officers; court mandates participation in drug treatment with bail set at $75,000, highlighting serious legal consequences.

  • Early Friday, officers arrested Lil Nas X in Studio City around 6am wearing only cowboy boots and underwear; he pleaded not guilty on Monday to four felony counts, including battery and resisting officers.
  • In the days before the arrest, Lil Nas X's unusual online posts and unreleased music prompted speculation, while defense lawyers described the incident as an aberration in an otherwise productive life.
  • Bystander videos show Hill disoriented and incoherent, once wearing an orange traffic cone, while police allege he charged officers, injuring three, per a criminal complaint.
  • A judge released Hill on $75,000 bail and ordered him to attend four Narcotics Anonymous meetings weekly or outpatient rehab; he faces up to five years and a pretrial on September 15.
  • On August 27 Hill told followers on Instagram Story that `Your girl is gonna be OK, y'all` and his father Robert Stafford said he is remorseful and seeking help.
