The mugshot of internet personality and YouTuber Charleston White has gone viral on social media after he was arrested in Tarrant County, Texas, on October 10, 2024. The official website of the Sheriff's Office has noted that White has been booked under two separate charges: cruelty on a non-livestock animal and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Charleston White is known for appearing on streaming platforms like Kick and YouTube, having recently gone live with popular content creator Adin Ross. The news of his most recent arrest went viral after social media users like @FearedBuck shared White's mugshot on X, with many people noting that he was arrested on similar charges in the past.
Netizens point out that Charleston White was arrested on animal cruelty charges last year
Charleston White is quite a controversial figure and recently received a lot of flak on the internet after he claimed he would never vote for a Black woman while talking about the upcoming US Presidential Elections. Regardless, he has made a name for himself in the music and entertainment scene and frequently goes viral for his takes on popular culture.
As mentioned, White frequently collaborates with artists and content creators and is fairly popular for his rants on social media. When the news of his arrest for animal cruelty surfaced online, many netizens pointed out that Charleston White was charged similarly in December of 2023.
@Clippedszn also shared an old clip of White where he appears trying to mace a stray animal before calling out PETA and claiming he doesn't care about animal cruelty:
"That's that one ni**a that chased me with. I don't give a f**k about some motherf**king PETA. They're a bunch of white people. I don't give no f**k about no animal cruelty. They got ni**a cruelty, yeah they mistreat Black kids. I don't give a f**k about macing no motherf**king cat."
Charleston White is known for being outspoken about his views. Only a couple of days ago, he made waves on the internet after he defended Diddy amid the ongoing legal case, claiming that the authorities have conducted a character assassination against the rapper.
