## Legal issues

On May 23, 2024, Kingston's Miami mansion was raided by SWAT. Kingston and his mother were arrested. According to reports, the arrest warrant was issued on numerous instances of Fraud and theft. Kingston's arrest was without incident, which had taken place after a concert in Fort Irwin, California, and he was booked into jail in San Bernardino County, California pending extradition to Florida. Kingston waived his right to fight extradition in California and was sent to Broward County jail. A week later, Kingston was released from police custody after posting bail of $100,000.

On March 28, 2025, a jury convicted both Kingston and his mother on all charges. His sentencing is set for July 11, 2025.
