Overview
- A Los Angeles judge approved a diversion that places rapper Offset on 12 months of probation after a March 13, 2025 dispute at the MedMen LAX dispensary.
- Under the order Offset must complete 50 hours of community service, attend anger management, pay restitution, avoid the MedMen location and refrain from new legal violations for one year.
- Prosecutors formally opposed diversion, calling the episode a “crime of violence,” and said an LAPD narrative alleges Offset pushed and struck the security guard before leaving after being pepper-sprayed.
- Offset’s defense disputed that account, argued he has stayed out of trouble since the incident and sought a six-month diversion that the judge doubled at a July 15 hearing Offset did not attend.
- The criminal charge can be dismissed if Offset meets the conditions but the guard’s civil lawsuit alleging assault and injuries remains pending with a hearing set for Aug. 5, 2026, which keeps potential financial and reputational exposure alive.
