AceShowbiz - Sexyy Red is taking legal action against her former security guard, seeking $500,000 in damages after a burglary at a family event, AllHipHop reports. During a birthday celebration for her mother held at a rented Florida mansion, a masked thief stole high-value jewelry, watches, and designer handbags.

Wgci further detailed that the lawsuit accuses Carl Thompson, the lead security guard, of negligence that led to the theft. Police investigations uncovered that a door to the property was left unlocked, which may have enabled the intruder’s entry. The complaint notes that Thompson was the last person to leave the premises before the incident was discovered, and Sexyy Red holds him and his security team responsible for failing to secure the mansion. Thompson had previously filed his own lawsuit in August 2025, claiming underpayment for his security services between 2023 and 2024, a claim that Sexyy Red disputes. 103weup adds that the stolen items include necklaces, rings, bracelets, and several designer bags, and that neither Thompson nor his representatives have publicly responded to the allegations. Ndtv confirms the ongoing legal battle between the two parties as they seek resolution in court.

Sexyy Red is a rapper known for her 2024 single "Get It Sexyy" and has earned multiple nominations at the 2024 BET Awards, including Best New Artist and Best Female Hip-Hop Artist. Her rising profile in hip-hop has been marked by critical recognition and a growing fanbase, making this lawsuit a significant episode in her career.

This lawsuit underscores the serious consequences of security failures, especially when entrusted to professionals during high-profile private events. For Sexyy Red, the theft not only represents a substantial financial loss but also raises concerns about accountability and trust in her personal protection team.
