Rapper charged with raping 2 women in area left desolate by California wildfire

A hip-hop artist and social media influencer who authorities say goes by "Clintnlord" online has been charged with rape and intent to commit rape, prosecutors said Tuesday.

A hip-hop artist and social media influencer who has amassed a six-figure follower base on social media has been charged with rape and intent to commit rape, prosecutors said Tuesday.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said Clinton Adams, 32, who it said goes by “Clintnlord" online, took two women to a desolate area created by Los Angeles’ disastrous Palisades Fire in January and sexually assaulted them. He is charged with three felony counts of forcible rape and a felony count of assault with the intent to commit rape.

The violence took place on separate occasions in the summer, the DA's office said.

"These women showed courage by coming forward to report their assaults," District Attorney Nathan Hochman said in a statement Tuesday.

Prosecutors and Los Angeles police detectives working the case believe there may be more victims and have asked any, along with possible witnesses, to reach out.
