Man Sues Xzibit After Rapper’s Pesticide-Laced Weed ‘Made Me Sick’

[videowaywire video_id=”2F2C419BF133E3F1″]

*“Empire” star Xzibit is being sued by a man who claims he got really sick off the rapper’s strain of THC oil.

Ignacio Lee has filed a lawsuit against Brass Knuckles branded THC Concentrate Vape Cartridges in Candy Apple and Sour Diesel. Xzibit promoted the brand on his Instagram, and that’s why Lee purchased the product.

According to the report, Xzibit said on his social media, “Our oil is clean.”

In another post, he said the product is “COMPLETELY pesticide AND contaminate FREE.”

Lee says he began using the brand in July 2016, and in 2017 he began experiencing fatigue, headaches, nausea, chest pains, shortness of breath, wheezing and difficulty breathing. When he stopped using the pot in August, the symptoms went away.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Lee hired an independent lab to test the product, which he says revealed detectable levels of pesticides.

His lawsuit is a class action on behalf of all the folks who smoked the strain in question. He also wants an order prohibiting Xzibit and others from marketing the product as contaminant free.
