Social media personality Charleston White was arrested in Texas on Monday (December 18). According to Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office records, White was charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of cruelty to non-livestock animals.
White was in custody at the Lon Evans Corrections Center in Fort Worth, Texas. Each assault charge carried a $15,000 bond. The animal cruelty charge’s bond was $1,000.
The controversial figure landed in jail days after he begged for a date with Cardi B on social media. White pitched the idea of a virtual date with the Atlantic Records rapper after she broke up with her husband Offset.
“We can do a Metaverse date,” White said. “You go to a restaurant, I go to a restaurant in a quiet corner and we go live [on Instagram] and just talk to each other. That’s all I want. Man, I just want to talk to Cardi B. I just wanna have a three-hour conversation with Cardi B like I had with Cam Newton.”
He added, “I used to want 12 gold teeth for Christmas. I don’t want 12 gold teeth no more. I want a three-hour conversation with Cardi B.”
White’s arrest occurred a little over a week after he was attacked at one of his comedy shows. A viral video of the incident showed him clashing with audience members and getting tackled on stage.
“They was heckling me and so I accused them n##### of being a nephew and an uncle who f### each other,” White claimed. “Them n##### got mad at me. So, the uncle with the Kobe Bryant jersey stands up and walked toward the stage and said, ‘Let me get on stage.’ So, I feared for my life and hit him with the flower vase.”
