TL;DR Summary

Seven officers with the Adams County Sheriff's Office are suing rapper Afroman for using footage of their 2022 search on his home to make and promote new music. The officers accused Foreman's use of their images and likeness as a "malicious" act that tarnished their reputation and humiliated them. The officers are suing him for the unauthorized use of individual's persona, invasion of privacy by misappropriation and invasion of privacy by false light publicity, among other things. Foreman has posted about the lawsuit on Instagram, saying that the search itself was based on a "false warrant" that "put the Adams county sheriff in a position to attempt to kill me."
