Seven law enforcement officers are suing rapper Afroman, real name Joseph Foreman, after he used footage from a police raid of his home in Ohio in August 2022 without their consent in music videos and social media posts. The officers allege that this has caused them ‘emotional distress, embarrassment, ridicule, loss of reputation and humiliation’ and are seeking all of Foreman’s profits from the use of their personas, as well as a court injunction to take down all videos and posts containing their faces.
