LHH Hollywood star Mally Mall’s home raided by FBI in reported human trafficking investigation
Music producer and Love & Hip Hop Hollywood reality star Mally Mall be soon be going to jaily jail after the FBI reportedly raided his home and escort service in Las Vegas earlier today as part of a reported human trafficking investigation.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, “agents assigned to the FBI’s public corruption squad, which also investigates civil rights violations, executed search warrants at Mall’s 4311 E. Oquendo Road home and his escort service, Las Vegas Concierge, at 6207 Dean Martin Dr.”
TMZ reports that Mally Mall, real name Jamal Rashid, wasn’t at his home or business at the time of the searches, but was in Los Angeles filming Love & Hip Hop Hollywood. (Fans of the show will know him as Nikki Mudarris’ boyfriend.)
Neighbors told the Review-Journal that there was a police helicopter hovering above the property just before 5AM and then they heard an “explosion” that they said sounded similar to a police flash bang grenade.
An FBI armored vehicle was reportedly seen pushing through the front gates of the property and later agents were spotted carrying two large bags from the property to the helicopter, which had landed in the yard.
One neighbor pointed out that having police vehicles raid Mally Mall’s property was nothing new and that years earlier she remembered seeing an armored vehicle tear the gates off. “Maybe they were being nicer this time,” she said.
Mally Mall is connected to numerous high-profile musicians, including Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, 2 Chainz, Drake and Snoop Dogg. Here’s a photo of Mally Mall with Justin Bieber and Drake from June:
In addition to occasional police raids, Mally Mall also has a bit of a history as a bad neighbor thanks to his fondness for exotic pets. Back in 2011 Mally was keeping two serval cats (in addition to a capuchin monkey, a 14-foot albino python, wolves and more) at his home, and after one of the cats escaped for the second time, he was called before the town advisory board.
“They’re basically domesticated cats,” Mally’s rep Ernest Spencer said. “They purr, they eat chicken. They’re always in the house.”
An interesting bit of trivia: Mally Mall was the person who gave Justin Bieber his pet capuchin monkey named OG Mally that is now in a Munich, Germany animal sanctuary after being seized at a German airport when The Biebs was unable to produce the appropriate documentation allowing him to being the monkey into the country.
To give you an idea of how much Mally liked his pets, here are a couple of house/zoo tours from Mally himself:
