Rap star Glorilla is spilling her tea about her current arrest, sharing her aspect of the chain of occasions that led to her felony drug fees this week.
The “Sticky” and “TGIF” musician, whose actual title is Gloria Woods, mentioned Thursday on X that her run-in with law-enforcement officers was “CRAZY.” She claimed that police, “instead of focusing on finding the Suspects” who broke into her Atlanta dwelling, “they focus[ed] on some cannabis.”
“1. So no I wasn’t busted 2. My house got robbed 3. I wasn’t home,” the 25-year-old performer wrote. “Long story short my house gets home invaded and I’m the only one that gets arrested.”
Officers with the Forsyth County [Ga.] Sheriff’s Workplace had been dispatched early Sunday morning to the rapper’s dwelling, responding to a report of a housebreaking. Woods was in Indianapolis on the time for the WNBA All-Star Sport, the place she was the halftime performer. Three suspects entered Woods’ dwelling and had been stealing objects when an occupant of the home fired a weapon on the intruders. The intruders fled the scene and didn’t seem to have been injured, the sheriff’s workplace mentioned.
Deputies investigating the housebreaking observed a “strong odor consistent with illegal narcotics,” and a drug job drive secured a warrant to look the house. An announcement from the sheriff’s workplace alleges the duty drive discovered marijuana “in plain view inside the master bedroom closet.” Woods was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of a managed substance.
She voluntarily turned herself in on Tuesday and was launched on $22,260 bail later that day. The sheriff’s workplace mentioned that it has not positioned the suspects and that its investigation into the housebreaking is ongoing. Authorized representatives for Woods alleged the suspects fled the scene with “high value jewelry” and that Woods’ relations staying on the dwelling “were traumatized” by the incident.
Attorneys Drew Findling and Marissa Goldberg mentioned in an announcement that Woods’ arrest is “a disturbing window into how warped law enforcement priorities have become” and that their consumer “is a victim, not a suspect.”
Sheriff Ron Freeman mentioned in an announcement that the home-owner is the “victim of a serious crime” and that officers search justice however “at the same time … must continue to uphold and enforce the law in all aspects of this case.”
After talking out on X about her arrest, GloRilla moved ahead by celebrating the arrival of Leo season. The “Typa” artist, who celebrates her birthday Monday, shared on social media revealing photos of herself posing with a chair. “Anyways, dey done let da LEOS ina door,” she captioned the pics.
The three-time Grammy nominee will take over the FedEx Discussion board in Memphis, Tenn., on Friday for her inaugural Glo Bash live performance.
