According to a post shared on September 12, Pretty accused White of physically assaulting her and alleged that he punched her while she was asleep.
"I have a lot to say about Charleston, from abusing me physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, and spiritually, to stealing my money, my jewelry, my clothes, my bags. He has disrespected me for the last time, and I won't stand for it anymore. I hope he gets what he deserves and rots in jail."
It is unclear whether Pretty’s claims are connected to White’s arrest. In addition, her claims have not been verified independently.
Charleston White's previous legal troubles
This is not the first legal issue related to White. In October 2024, he was arrested in Texas on an animal cruelty charge and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The allegations included claims that he pepper-sprayed a cat, which White denied. His combined bond was reportedly set at $31,000.
White was arrested again in the Fort Worth area in February 2025 on two aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charges. He was initially held without bond before being released several days later. White subsequently claimed that the charges had been dropped.
The comedian has also previously spoken about an alleged FBI investigation involving claims that he was holding women hostage and had illegal weapons. During a livestream in 2023, White mocked those allegations.
