According to a report on Vibe, controversial singer, Jaguar Wright, was detained in Dallas on June 6.

After posting a $10,000 bond, Wright was freed on June 7 following her arrest for property theft ranging from $30,000 to $150,000.

Jaguar stated in an online interview on the Sean Davie Way YouTube show: “It’s not what they’re saying it is. There’s no charge, so they can’t hold me.”

Reports stated that Jaguar Wright was taken into custody on an outstanding warrant following her alleged rental of a U-Haul truck that she never returned.

Additionally, she asserts that the arrest was made to silence her due to the contentious interviews she has been granting.

She accused YouTuber Tasha K of being behind the most recent arrest, according to Baller Alert.

Tasha K however debunked the allegations and stated on the Sean Davie Way Show that: “Jaguar is always looking for someone to blame. Her not returning to U-Haul was not my fault. She should stop attempting to bring other people down with her and accept responsibility for her own behaviour.”

On June 6, Tasha K shared an interview that Wright granted Davie on her X account.

She said that Wright is “a real-life schizophrenic” and denied any participation in her recent run-in with the law.

In recent years, Wright has gained notoriety for making libelous accusations against celebrities like Common, Jay-Z, and Diddy.

A video from earlier this year shows Wright being taken into custody following a domestic argument. Her spouse claimed she tossed their late son’s ashes through a car window.
