Lil Nas X avoids felony battery conviction by entering mental health diversion program.

Grammy-winning artist Lil Nas X will have felony battery charges dismissed if he completes a two-year mental health diversion program after a judge in Los Angeles ruled the arrest stemmed from uncharacteristic behavior linked to his bipolar disorder. The 26-year-old rapper, who was arrested naked in August 2025 after allegedly attacking police officers, is currently undergoing treatment and must remain law-abiding to avoid a conviction.
