Afroman absolutely destroys cop who cried at his defamation trial by reposting savage music video
A defiant Afroman is still trolling an Ohio cop who sobbed on the stand during his defamation trial by blasting out mocking music videos ridiculing her and the others currently suing him.
The 51-year-old “Because I Got High” rapper eviscerated Adams County Deputy Sheriff Lisa Phillips with an expletive-laden music clip posted on Instagram late Tuesday — just hours after she tearfully testified against him in court.
“Where was these tears when she was standing in my yard with a loaded AR-15 ready to Swiss cheese me?” the rapper sniped in his caption.

The sheriff’s office is currently suing Afroman, whose real name is Joseph Foreman, over a satirical music video he put out in 2022 following a botched raid on his home that never resulted in any charges but severely damaged property.
The film clip, which quickly went viral and racked up millions of views, used actual footage from the raid — a move the officers claim only resulted in them being harassed and ridiculed.
Afroman, who took the stand Tuesday clad in a flamboyant red, white, and blue suit with matching sunglasses, has argued he is only exercising free speech.
Still, in the days since the trial kicked off, Afroman has repeatedly trolled the sheriff’s office and those testifying against him with a spate of mocking social media posts.
Adams County Deputy Sheriff Lisa Phillips is emotional while testifying in court.
“Stealin money, stealin cakes when they make their traffic stops. First they screw you, then they sue you … the proof’s on the internet,” he sang in one video.
He posted a compilation video, too, of several officers confirming the ridiculous names he has called them — including “hunchback” and “officer poundcake” as they each took the stand.
WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE
The title of the song linked to the raid — “Lemon Pound Cake” — was inspired by one of the officers who apparently glanced down at the dessert inside his kitchen during the raid.

His defiant posts came after the fired-up rapper blasted the officers in court, pinning the blame entirely on them.
“If they hadn’t wrongly raided my house, there would be no lawsuit, I would not know their names, they wouldn’t be on my home surveillance system, and there would be no songs … my money would still be intact,” he told the court.
Afroman has claimed he only recorded the music video to raise money for the damages inflicted on his property during the fruitless search.

Four deputies, two sergeants, and a detective filed the suit against the rapper, alleging the song defamed them, invaded their constitutional privacy, and was an intentional infliction of emotional distress.
At the time of the raid, the agents had been acting on a warrant asserting probable cause for narcotics being stored and kidnappings taking place on the property.
No charges were ever filed after officers found zero evidence of criminal activity.
