Lil Nas X's Assault Charges Dropped After Mental Health Program

0:00On April 7, Lil Nas X just caught a major breaking court on his assault charges from last August. A judge ruled the charges get dropped if he finishes a two-year mental health program. This stems from an early morning incident in Studio City where he was out walking in his underwear and ended up charging at officers when they approached. Earlier this week on April 6, the court laid out the deal from Montero the Mar Hill, his real name. He already did a voluntary two-month treatment after getting diagnosed with bipolar disorder, right after the arrest. Bail back then was set at $75,000 and he pleaded not guilty to three counts of battery on police, plus resisting arrest. Fans and family have been right there supporting him through it all. He told everyone he was physically okay but pretty shaken up, calling the whole thing terrifying. His dad pointed to the crazy music industry pressure, family responsibilities, and his mom's addiction struggles as factors in the breakdown. The judge made it clear, stick to the treatment, stay out of trouble, no weapons or threats for two years, and it's all
