The Broward Sheriff’s Office in Florida raided Sean Kingston‘s home in Southwest Ranches on Thursday, local station WSVN reported. The raid stemmed from accusations that Kingston, whose real name is Kisean Paul Anderson, failed to pay for a $150,000 entertainment system.
Officials stated that Kingston allegedly never paid for the high-end system, leading to a lawsuit filed against him in February. News helicopters captured footage of several police cruisers and deputies surrounding the property.
Dennis Card, an attorney for the company that sold the entertainment system, was present during the raid. He explained, “He said that he works with Justin Bieber and that he, obviously, puts on a big show here. This is a rental house; he doesn’t own it. He lures people using his celebrity to release things without paying and then simply never pays.”
Card added that the Broward Sheriff’s Office is working to expand their search warrant to access other parts of Kingston’s home. “He is stealing the property itself,” Card said. “He has a standardized script that he gives people, claiming he wants to purchase these things, but he never pays for anything. He gets the stuff and that’s the end of the story. He does it over and over and over.”
