Afroman is seen on the stand Tuesday at a courthouse in West Union, Ohio, in an image taken from local news video. God bless America!” the 51-year-old rapper, born Joseph Foreman, shouted outside the courthouse after the Wednesday evening verdict as supporters rallied behind him. He said on the stand that the raid traumatized his children, who were 10 and 12 at the time. “These guys with their rifles are crying about my comedy songs.”AdvertisementMeanwhile, as the jury deliberated Wednesday, an entirely different Adams County Sheriff’s Office was feeling online heat linked to the trial: the office in Colorado’s Adams County. “The Adams County Sheriff’s Office has received a flood of social media comments, DMs, and phone calls about the #Afroman defamation trial,” the Colorado department said on X.
