DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — Longtime “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Karlie Redd is facing charges in DeKalb County.

Defense attorney Steve Sadow, who is representing Lewis, says she turned herself in to the sheriff’s office earlier this week and was immediately released on a consent bond.

“The warrant taken out on April 4 alleges Karlie’s husband is the claimed ‘victim.’ As everyone knows, Karlie and her husband are in the midst of a divorce proceeding, and her husband has previously been charged in Fulton County with family violence battery against her,” Sadow’s statement continued.

He said he feels confident that her case will be resolved “favorably.”
