Lil Nas X Undergoes Rehab After Incident Against Police
Award-winning artist Montero Lamar Hill is currently receiving intensive therapy, as stated by his attorneys lately. The news arrives in the wake of his arrest last month on several allegations involving assault as well as resisting officers.
Court Hearing Confirms Treatment Program
In a court hearing this week, Hill’s legal representatives told the judge that their client was receiving care beyond California. The judge reportedly allowed him to stay elsewhere as long as he remains in care.
“We’re addressing those issues” while “he will move past this obstacle”, stated the attorneys.
Background of the Incident
The arrest happened in August 21 after Hill was said to be moving down a Studio City avenue without full attire before allegedly advancing toward police who had stopped him.
Montero has denied the charges to several charges of assault on officers and one serious count of obstructing an officer of the law.
Rise to Fame
Montero Hill initially rose to fame in 2018 thanks to his record-breaking hit “his breakout song,” which led Billboard for 19 weeks. The artist eventually received multiple Grammy Awards.
Legal Risks
In the event of a conviction, the artist could face as much as five years in incarceration.
After the arrest, he published a message on social media stating, “That was terrifying, but “your girl’s gonna be all right”.
His attorney one of his lawyers stated that their client is “backed by a strong personal network” and circle that looks after his well-being.
