Killer Mike Files Lawsuit Over 2024 Grammys Arrest

The rapper claims security guards used excessive force and caused public humiliation during the high-profile event.

  • Killer Mike has sued S&S Labor Force and JRM Private Security, alleging false arrest, assault, battery, and negligence during the 2024 Grammy Awards.
  • The incident occurred shortly after he won three Grammys, including Best Rap Album, as he attempted to access the red carpet area with proper credentials.
  • The lawsuit claims security guards physically restrained him, causing emotional distress, professional harm, and public embarrassment in front of onlookers.
  • Prosecutors declined to file charges against Killer Mike after the arrest, which stemmed from a citizen's arrest made by a security guard who accused him of pushing her.
  • Killer Mike is seeking damages and argues the security companies overstepped their authority, depriving him of the opportunity to appear on live television during the ceremony.
