Rapper Afroman, real name Joseph Foreman, won a two-day trial in Ohio after law enforcement sued him for using real footage of police in two viral music videos. The lawsuit was filed three years after Afroman's music videos used footage from a 2022 police raid on his home. The complaint alleged that Afroman used their likeness without permission and profited off their images. The rapper was not home at the time of the raid, but his then-wife filmed it on her phone. Afroman defended the music videos and criticized police for their raid on him. He maintains that posting the videos was part of his freedom of speech and allowed him to raise funds for property damage.
