Rapper Xzibit faces escalating legal challenges as former employee speaks out about alleged intimidation and unpaid work, shedding light on the star's tumultuous divorce proceedings.
Julio Garcia, a former close aide to the rapper and reality TV personality, has come forward with shocking accusations against Xzibit, also known as Alvin Joiner. Garcia claims that Xzibit made chilling threats on his life in connection to sensitive financial details linked to the celebrity's contentious divorce.
Allegedly, Xzibit warned Garcia against disclosing any information regarding his properties, vehicles, or assets, bluntly stating, "I’ll kill you," and then enigmatically adding, "Good luck to you and Krista," in reference to his estranged spouse, Krista Joiner.
The distressing revelations, initially reported by In Touch, outline Garcia's distressing experiences of enduring years of unpaid labor and relentless coercion under the rapper's employment.
Garcia described an unsettling incident where Xzibit purportedly coerced him into transporting cannabis-related merchandise from Las Vegas to a warehouse in Chatsworth, California, believed to be associated with the rapper's cannabis business. Despite the grave risks involved, Garcia disclosed vital details about the warehouse and Xzibit's luxury vehicles.
In fear for his life, Garcia claims Xzibit threatened dire consequences if he revealed any information about the cannabis operations or the warehouse itself.
Xzibit's legal representation has countered these allegations, suggesting that Joiner exerted influence over witnesses through intimidation and legal threats to sway their testimonies in her favor.
A temporary restraining order has been issued, requiring Xzibit to maintain a significant distance from Garcia, his wife, and daughter. A crucial court hearing on March 19 will determine the fate of this restraining order, deciding whether it will be made permanent or dismissed altogether.
