Despite the discovery, Smart was not arrested on the spot. Instead, he was issued a citation and released at the time. According to authorities, the case will be presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office, which will determine whether formal charges will be filed against the actor and dancer.
Casper Smart gained notoriety for his romantic relationship with Jennifer Lopez, which began in 2011 shortly after the singer's divorce from Marc Anthony. Their romance was on and off for five years until their final separation in 2016. In interviews, Jennifer Lopez even praised Smart for his support during tough times following her divorce.
However, subsequent reports pointed out that the breakup was due to alleged infidelities on Smart's part. Although during his relationship with Lopez, Smart claimed to stay away from the excesses of Hollywood, this incident could mark a change in his public record.

In past interviews, he stated that neither he nor Jennifer used drugs or alcohol, and that they preferred to lead a discreet life. This raid adds a complicated chapter to the life of the former choreographer, who previously worked on projects like Jennifer Lopez's music video "Dance Again." Meanwhile, neither Smart nor his legal team have issued comments on the accusations or the future of his case.
The scandal has generated mixed reactions on social media, from those who criticize it for its alleged involvement in illegal activities, to those who defend it, arguing that the cultivation of cannabis in California is regulated under certain circumstances. The decision of the prosecution will determine if this case will significantly affect Casper Smart’s life.
