  "textContent": "After his arrest for battery of a police officer last summer after an erratic post-midnight expedition into the streets of Los Angeles, Lil Nas X was charged with four felonies, raising the prospect of potential jail time. In the immediate aftermath, he called his arrest and weekend-long jail stint \"terrifying,\" and his lawyer said he was not taking illegal drugs at the time of his arrest. LNX (pictured above at a hearing last month) had disclosed mental health struggles to fans several months before the arrest, and a few weeks afterward, his lawyer said he was undergoing unspecified treatment.\n\nThe post Assault Charges Against Lil Nas X To Be Dropped Pending Mental Health Treatment appeared first on Stereogum.",
