Authorities filed ten charges following an alleged encounter on an interstate highway.<\/p>\n<p>According to police claims, a trooper says the rapper sped past him and pointed a firearm several times during the incident. That accusation led investigators to move forward with multiple criminal charges.<\/p>\n<p>However, a sworn affidavit has complicated the case. A woman has stepped forward claiming OJ Da Juiceman was not driving the vehicle during the alleged confrontation.<\/p>\n<p>She stated the rapper rented the car in her name earlier that day. Later, she allowed another man to use the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>According to her account, OJ Da Juiceman had no involvement when the alleged incident occurred. The affidavit now raises new questions about the arrest.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the rapper\u2019s team says the accusations do not align with his character.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOJ has the utmost respect for law enforcement,\u201d his representatives said. \u201cThese accusations run completely against his character.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mornings With Mero | HOT 97 Livestream 3-27-26\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NH4a200JpCk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>His management also claims investigators know who actually committed the offense but continue pursuing charges against the rapper.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the situation has already hit his career.
