Animal Cruelty Charges

In July 2022 Ceaser turned himself into the police in South Fulton, Georgia on animal cruelty charges. The charges were filed weeks after a video went viral that allegedly showed Ceaser kicking beating a dog outside his shop with a metal chair.

When the video became public, Ceaser was swiftly fired from the VH1 reality series franchise.

According to Ceaser's lawyers, the incident with the dog occurred during COVID lockdown and was leaked by an angry ex-girlfriend. Ceaser also claimed that the security footage did now show his full intent, which was to break up a dog fight.

In a statement Ceaser's representative told TMZ:

"Although his actions were not appropriate at all, Ceaser is sincerely apologetic and feels extremely bad. He is dealing with death threats which is causing him fear and depression. His only goal was to build an empire to help build jobs and bring the black community in the tattoo industry successful given that the community is limited there."

Speaking on his firing from the franchise, a VH1 spokesperson released the following statement:

"We have made the decision to cut ties with Ceaser Emanuel from Black Ink Crew New York. Since next season was close to finishing production, this decision will not impact the upcoming season."
