Authorities in South Florida raided the home of Jamaican singer and rapper Sean Kingston on Thursday.
The Broward County Sheriff’s Office swarmed the luxurious Southwest Ranches property, which had multiple police cruisers parked inside and around its front gates, overhead footage from WSVN showed.
Kingston — whose real name is Kisean Paul Anderson — is accused of not paying for a $150,000 entertainment system, authorities told the outlet.
The allegation stems from a lawsuit filed against the “Beautiful Girls” singer in February by Ver Entertainment LLC, WSVN reported.
Dennis Card, an attorney for the company, was outside Kingston’s home while the raid took place.
“He said that he works with Justin Bieber and that he, obviously, puts on a big show here, this is a rental house, he doesn’t own it,” Card told WSVN.
“And he lures people using his celebrity into having them release things without having him pay for it and then he simply never pays,” the lawyer claimed.
The Broward County Sheriff’s Office is trying to expand the initial search to other areas of Kingston’s home, Card added.
“He is stealing the property itself,” Card said.
“He has a standardized script that he gives people, which is that he’s a recording artist, that he certainly is, and that he wants to purchase these things, but he never pays for anything. He gets the stuff and that’s the end of the story. He does it over and over and over.”
