GloRilla Breaks Silence After Arrest, Says Police Ignored Home Invasion to Focus on Cannabis

Rising hip-hop star GloRilla is speaking out following her recent arrest — and her version of events is raising serious questions about how authorities handled the situation. In a statement released on social media late last night, the rapper claims she was the victim of a home invasion while she was away performing at the WNBA All-Star Game, and that police failed to prioritize the real crime.

“While I was doing my job and supporting women’s sports, somebody broke into my house,” GloRilla wrote. “Instead of finding out who did it, they came after me for some weed.”

The Memphis native, known for her breakout hit “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)”, was arrested shortly after returning from the WNBA’s star-studded weekend in Las Vegas, where she was one of the featured halftime performers. According to law enforcement sources, officers had been dispatched to her residence after a reported break-in. But once inside, they allegedly found marijuana and other paraphernalia, which led to her arrest on misdemeanor possession charges.

However, GloRilla’s fans and supporters say the bigger issue is being ignored.

“This is bigger than weed,” one fan tweeted. “Her home was invaded. She could’ve been hurt. Why aren’t we talking about that?”

In her statement, GloRilla emphasized that she does not live alone and that multiple people have access to her home, including staff and family members. She also alleges that no meaningful investigation was launched to track down the burglars who entered her home.

“They didn’t even fingerprint the scene,” she said. “Just cuffed me and left.”

Legal experts have weighed in, saying the situation raises concerns about bias in policing, particularly when it involves high-profile Black entertainers.

“This reflects a troubling pattern,” said civil rights attorney Maya Hensley. “You have a young Black woman reporting a home invasion, and the response is to arrest her for nonviolent possession while the actual criminals walk free.”

The timing of the incident has only intensified public reaction. GloRilla’s appearance at the WNBA All-Star Game was praised as a celebration of Black excellence, and many now feel that her post-performance experience stands in stark contrast.

On Instagram Live, GloRilla emotionally thanked her fans for their continued support and vowed to fight the charges. She also hinted at taking legal action of her own.

“I’m not letting this go. They violated my rights and they ignored the real danger,” she said. “I’m not the criminal here.”

Representatives for the local police department have not yet responded to requests for comment.

In the meantime, hashtags like #JusticeForGlo and #ProtectBlackWomen have begun trending, as fans demand both accountability and protection for the rapper.

While her legal fate remains unclear, one thing is certain — GloRilla is not backing down.
