GloRilla is breaking her silence on her shocking July arrest, which came just after burglars stole more than $700,000 worth of items from her Georgia home.
From victim to suspect
While the rapper was out of town performing at the WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis, her home was broken into. But instead of law enforcement focusing on the burglary, GloRilla says she was treated like a criminal.
“I feel like me, and my brother and sister, we were victims in this situation. But somehow, they’re trying to paint us out to be suspects, and I just feel like it’s all the way wrong,” she told WSB-TV’s Michael Seiden in a new interview.
Police claimed they discovered a large amount of marijuana inside the home and issued warrants for her arrest. GloRilla was taken into custody within 24 hours.
Her attorney calls foul
Glo’s lawyer, Drew Findling, slammed authorities for their priorities:
“The most egregious part is that there seems to be no movement whatsoever in this home invasion, but rather, within 24 hours, there were warrants for her arrest for a marijuana possession case. That’s unconscionable.”
GloRilla’s response
After her arrest, Glo vented on X (formerly Twitter), writing:
“My house got home invaded… & instead of focusing on finding the suspects, they focus on some cannabis. Long story short: my house gets home invaded and I’m the only one that gets arrested. So that’s tea.”
She posted bond the same day for $22,000 and was released. Her legal team later described the ordeal as a “disturbing window into how warped law enforcement priorities have become.”
What’s next
So far, there’s been little progress reported in catching the burglars responsible for the heist. Meanwhile, GloRilla and her team continue to push back against what they describe as an unjust legal process.
