Rap star Sean Kingston is arrested on stage hours after his Florida mansion was raided and his mom detained in fraud case 'linked to $150,000 payment for gigantic 17FOOT television'

Sean's extradition hearing is scheduled for Tuesday. After that he's expected to return to Florida where he will again be taken into custody. 

Janice was arrested on Thursday during the raid of the rapper's 14,000-square foot rented mansion in Southwest Ranches.

Authorities seized a number of items from the property including including a giant LED TV screen with a price tag of $150,000.

The case is tied to Kingston's purchase of the 17 foot by 9 foot TV in September 2023. 

Attorney Dennis Card filed a lawsuit against the rapper in relation to the purchase of the $150,000 entertainment set was present at the arrest of Turner.

Card claims that Kingston acquired the TV on credit with a low down payment because he promised the seller, Ver Ver Entertainment, who sell the sets under the brand name Colossal TV, that Justin Bieber would do commercials for them.

'[Justin Bieber] is 100 percent not involved in this,' Card said. 'He had the misfortune of doing some work in the past with Sean, and Sean drops his name like crazy.'

Robert Rosenblatt, an attorney representing the rapper and his mother, said, 'we are aware of some of the allegations' being made against the two.
