Rapper Slim Jxmmi was reportedly arrested after he took a flight from Canada to LAX this week.
TMZ reports he was taken into custody by Customs and Border Patrol agents due to an outstanding arrest warrant following a previous arrest for possession of marijuana with intent to sell and now a judge wants him extradited to Georgia.
His attorney says it was a misunderstanding.
“Nearly two years ago, Aaquil entered a plea to a marijuana offense in Cobb County, Georgia. He was placed on probation,” Sadow said. “In early June 2022, the mother of his child filed a untruthful complaint with the Cobb County Police Department, which led to an arrest warrant being issued.
“Aaquil was not arrested on that warrant. Instead, a Cobb County Magistrate Judge held a hearing on July 20, 2022 and dismissed the warrant.”
If convicted, the rapper faces up to 30 years in prison.
Earlier this year, Slim Jxmmi was arrested for battery after an alleged fight with his girlfriend.
