December 9, 2025: Influencer Facing Felony Rape Charges in Sexual Assault of Two Women, Additional Victims Sought

If convicted as charged, Clinton Adams faces 90 years to life in state prison

LOS ANGELES - Felony charges have been filed against social media influencer and hip-hop artist Clinton Adams, known online as "Clintnlord," for allegedly sexually assaulting two women he lured to a vacant area impacted by January wildfires. The assaults allegedly occurred during separate incidents this past summer.

"These allegations describe predatory attacks carried out in an area still affected by the aftermath of the January wildfires," District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman said. "Taking advantage of a historic disaster and causing severe harm to two women is despicable. These women showed courage by coming forward to report their assaults. Investigators believe there may be additional victims. Anyone who believes they were victimized or may be a witness is encouraged to contact the Los Angeles Police Department to make a report. Prosecutors from our Sex Crimes Division will pursue this case with every resource necessary to seek justice, protect the public and ensure the defendant is held fully accountable."

Clinton Adams (dob 6/1/93) of Northridge is charged in case 25CJCF07575 with three felony counts of forcible rape and one felony count of assault with the intent to commit rape. It is further alleged that the crimes were committed against multiple victims.

Adams pleaded not guilty at arraignment on Nov. 21. His preliminary hearing setting is scheduled for Jan. 21 in Department 36 of the Foltz Criminal Justice Center. He remains in custody on $1,475,000 bail.

If convicted as charged, Adams faces a possible sentence of 90 years to life in state prison.

The case is being prosecuted by Deputy District Attorneys Negin Mostadim and Matthew Bunnett and remains under investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department.

LAPD's Operations-West Bureau Special Assault Section is seeking the public's help to identify additional victims or witnesses. Anyone with information regarding Clinton Adams is urged to contact Officer Lee at 213-473-0420.
