Famous Dex was arrested back on August 23 for allegedly assaulting Pam Rodriguez, and in the bodycam footage, Dex, namedropped some artists.

Famous Dex is facing serious accusations of domestic violence from influencer Pam Rodriguez, whom he dated for about three weeks. In fact, Dex was arrested for alleged domestic battery in Las Vegas back on August 23.

According to TMZ, some of the body cam footage from the arrest has been obtained. In this body cam footage, Dex and the officer seemed to have a good rapport. They fist-bumped numerous times throughout the video. Furthermore, Dex had the cop impressed when he said he was performing at MGM Grand Garden Arena that night.

Interestingly, at one point in the video, Famous Dex even says that he was going to be performing with Future and Playboi Carti. As TMZ points out, this was not close to the truth. Carti was performing in Ireland, and Future did not have a scheduled concert.

As it pertains to the actual arrest, Dex was adamant with the officer that he did nothing wrong. He claims they never fought and that he never got physical. Dex also asked if he could go back to their hotel room to fetch some laptops and other belongings.

The police have alleged that Dex scratched and poked Rodriguez the day before his arrest. One day prior to that, Rodriguez accused Famous Dex of giving her a black eye and a busted lip after punching her in the face.

These are extremely serious accusations that Dex continues to deny. This is an ongoing legal case, and there have been few updates since the initial arrest and the subsequent body cam footage.
