L.A. hip-hop influencer lured rape victims to vacant Pacific Palisades home, police say
"A hip hop artist and social media influencer accused of rape lured his victims to a vacant Pacific Palisades home damaged in January's fires where he was pretending to live, according to police. Clintnlord, whose real name is Clinton Adams, is charged with three counts of rape and has been in custody since he was arrested Nov. 19. On Wednesday, police released his photograph and said they were seeking more possible victims."
"But behind the scenes, Los Angeles police investigators say Adams had been using a home in the Pacific Palisades, unbeknownst to its owners, to meet women and get them alone to assault them. The home had been vacated due to smoke damage from the January firestorms and Adams broke in without the owners knowing, according to investigators. "He was transient when we arrested him," said LAPD Det. Brent Hopkins. "The homeowners did not give him permission to be in their home.""
