This Afroman trial is giving me life.

Cops raided Afroman's house for no reason. They pointed guns at him and his kids, ransacked his house, and tried to disconnect his home security cameras. They didn't disconnect them all, and so were allegedly caught on camera stealing his money.

He then made a series of music videos using footage from his security camerasz and body cam footage. Now the cops are suing him for making the videos. The ACLU is defending him.

Deputy Suing Afroman Says Cops In Other Areas Know Him As ‘Officer Pound Cake’

YouTube

@mekkaokereke ahahahahahahahahaha I love it. ❤️❤️❤️

Great, now I don't get this damned song out of my head 😂

@mekkaokereke is the cop's entire suit just this dril tweet?
@mekkaokereke The hero we need in these fucked-off times.

@mekkaokereke list of things nobody would have cared about on a national scale until they took it to court: this guy will forever be mocked.

If he wanted people to keep his name outta their mouths, maybe he shoulda stayed outta Afroman's home and kept another man's property outta his pockets.

He's rightfully gettin legally dog walked on public record for embarrassing himself and dishonoring his badge. Lol

@NadiaPurge @mekkaokereke maybe the streisand effect gets a lemon pound cake corollary
@geospaz @mekkaokereke at least his nickname makes him sound delicious. Lol

@mekkaokereke

Defamation: Act of injuring another's reputation by any slanderous communication, written or oral; the wrong of maliciously injuring the good name of another; slander; detraction; calumny; aspersion.
Slander: A false and malicious statement or report about someone.
Malicious: Indulging or exercising malice; harboring ill will or enmity.

Well, the ill will seems justified. If all cops believed they might get caught out for THEIR malicious behaviour, maybe things would improve.

@mekkaokereke for those unfamiliar, this seems a good summary: https://youtu.be/TXb-Dq4oi4s

@CStamp @mekkaokereke yup, and it also doesn't really matter if it's malicious--it's not slander if it's true. Video footage cannot be slander/libel/defamation lol unless it's a deepfake

@mekkaokereke lol wut? Why isn't he suing the other cops making fun of him then?

On a side note: acab apparently also true for colleagues... harming poor lemon pound cake like that with cop-on-cop violence smh 😔

@mekkaokereke he couldn’t even say his name! lol
@Nicovel0 @mekkaokereke Oh, you _know_ which word he was gonna use before stopping himself.
@mekkaokereke he’s lucky it’s not cake fucker after the way he was eyeballing it in the video.
@mekkaokereke I gotta admit I was not ready for how on point Afroman was. That's not someone you wanna argue with, let alone be _wrong_ when you are!
@Mabande @mekkaokereke 100%. Rock solid like that, not to mention while testifying. Stands out because it is so rare. That was watching a very sharp and organised mind at work.

@mekkaokereke @Mabande

He is indeed impressive! Also, it’s easier to stay on point when you only need to have one:

They done bad, and that is the source of all their troubles: don’t blame me!

@Mabande @mekkaokereke

His lawyer prepped him well and he was on point.

Meanwhile, at opposing counsel's table....

@DeliaChristina @mekkaokereke The Best and Brightest can't even understand the concept of just saying "no".
@mekkaokereke separately it did not occur to me until @annathepiper repeated this story at me _just now_ that "lemon pound cake" and "bacon pancakes" have exactly the same scansion
@mekkaokereke (and now i'm just hearing the other cops go "lemon found cake makin' lemon pound cake, lemon pound cake lemon lemon pound cake" whenever he's nearby)
@mekkaokereke what a fragile baby that cop is. Afroman did the lightest possible roasting with that song and video. He literally called him a family guy and said he likes cake. This is such a childish lawsuit.
@domo @mekkaokereke That's not just one cop. It's all of them, including the guy who left the force after being bullied by the local kids.
@mekkaokereke right, next time I'm rightfully humiliated in public I'll sue and make a massive affair of it until even some rando from Germany (ahem 👋) knows I'm a big cwybaby about 🎵"Lemon Pound Cake, Lemon Pound Cake" 🎶 Do these guys ever consult the Barbra Streisand wiki page?
@mekkaokereke Great job Officers! All charges found in favor of the defendant, none for the plaintiffs.
@mekkaokereke HE WON! The jury did not find him guilty. I love this for the butt hurt cops who raided him.

@mekkaokereke

"Officer Cooley, these 'lemon pound cake' t-shirts that you mention, can you tell the court where these can be purchased." 🤣

@mekkaokereke Daaamn! These responses are amazing. No idea who this guy is tbh but he's my new personal hero.
