A probable cause statement explaining Gaulden’s arrest states the drug ring he is suspected of running primarily worked to fraudulently obtain codeine and promethazine . Gaulden is under investigation for 63 crimes in connection with the Utah case, including 20 counts of identity fraud, 20 counts of forgery and 20 counts of illegally procuring or attempting to procure prescription drugs. He is also suspected of marijuana possession; possession of a gun by a restricted person; and a “pattern of unlawful activity.

The document states Gaulden “is consistently rapping about shooting and killing people, using drugs and having a strong dislike for law enforcement.” He can be seen with guns and “smoking what appears to be marijuana rolled cigarettes” in many of his videos, “even recent videos as of the beginning of 2024″ — made while he was under house arrest.
