DDG seeks sole custody of son with Halle Bailey, granted temporary protection
Halle Bailey's ex DDG has been granted a temporary restraining order against her, weeks after the actress was granted her own temporary restraining order against DDG over allegations of physical and verbal abuse. DDG, 27, whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., filed for a restraining order against the "Little Mermaid" actress, 25, on Wednesday. The filing comes three weeks after Bailey requested sole legal and physical custody of the pair's son Halo. In her petition last month, Bailey said she was "seeking permission to take Halo" with her to film in Italy. DDG, a rapper, YouTuber and Twitch streamer, filed a motion this week requesting an emergency hearing, asking for sole legal and physical custody of their son and for the court to restrict Bailey from traveling internationally with Halo. The court denied that request until a hearing could be held on the matter. MORE: Enter headline of content here DDG also claimed in the declaration he filed that he endured instances of physical abuse and coercion. He claimed Bailey "poses an immediate threat to my safety and emotional well-being and more importantly, to the stability and safety of our son" in the filing. DDG specifically claimed Bailey allegedly "routinely used emotional coercion, including but not limited to threats of self-harm" when he attempted to leave their relationship, allegedly "weaponized our pregnancy" with threats that she would "abort our baby should I not reconcile or accede to her demands," and allegedly invaded his privacy, according to the declaration. He included third-party statements from his mother, Tonya Granberry, and her fiancé, George Charlston to try and support his claims. Tonya Granberry claimed in a declaration filed with DDG's TRO request that she and Charlston allegedly discovered several AirTags, which she claimed were "left behind" by Bailey, and alleging it was a "clear and deliberate pattern of unauthorized surveillance and stalking" of her son. On Wednesday, the court granted a temporary order of protection for DDG against Bailey, ordering her not to, in part, harass, assault, stalk, impersonating, or surveil DDG. The court denied his request for "no-contact" and "stay-away" orders until a hearing. DDG's lawyer, Larry M. Bakman, told "Good Morning America" that the custody-related issues regarding DDG and Bailey's son are pending and that DDG "remains committed to resolving them through the appropriate legal channels, not the court of public opinion." Bakman stated that a hearing on both requests for domestic violence restraining orders is set for June 24. Attorneys and representatives for Bailey did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the temporary restraining order against her. Halle Bailey says her grandparents helped her overcome 'The Little Mermaid' casting backlash In her petition last month, Bailey accused DDG of starting "drama" and "badmouthing" her to his fans. She also alleged that DDG had been physically and verbally abusive with her since their split in 2024, which she claimed was due to DDG's "temper and lack of respect towards me." She also claimed in a declaration included with her TRO request that "incidents of physical abuse" allegedly occurred before their son was born. According to the declaration, the actress claimed that when Halo is in DDG's care, their son is usually left with DDG's mother. "I cannot keep living like this," Bailey stated at the time. "I never know when he is going to demand our son be in his Mother's care and whether I will be subjected to his threats and abuse." Bailey also stated that she wants Halo to be close with DDG's family but said DDG "should be present instead of simply leaving Halo with his family for days."

Carteret County Sheriff's Office arrest 37 suspects on 333 felony drug charges
CARTERET COUNTY, N.C. (WNCT)- The Carteret County Sheriff's Office arrested 37 suspects on 333 felony drug charges over the past 6 months. 'Operation Think Twice' involved numerous undercover operations and found the suspects actively engaged in drug sales in the community including fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine and cocaine. Sheriff Asa Buck III said they made numerous controlled and undercover purchases from each of the suspects. 'If you think you're going to sell drugs here in Carteret County, you better think twice,' Buck said. Only three people have died so far this year in Carteret County from an overdose. Buck says this a dramatic decrease from the 35 that died in 2020 and only continues to decrease each year. 'I think that's due to a number of different things, especially the strict enforcement,' Buck said. 'When you take somebody off the street, you put them in jail, they're not out here in the community selling drugs or to somebody's son or daughter.' Buck emphasized that strict enforcement is a part of a long process before it leads to a conviction. 'I absolutely wouldn't say that in Carteret County were too tough on anybody. Matter of fact, I'd like to see some of the laws be a little bit tougher,' Buck said. 'If you put fentanyl in somebody's hand, you hand them a loaded gun.' Prosecutorial District 4 also has one of the highest charging and conviction rates in the state for death by distribution 'One of the reasons that we're so proactive and aggressive with regard to death distribution and drug traffickers is because we want to keep as much pressure as we can on drug traffickers and those who are bringing harm and death into our communities to make our community safer for all of our families,' District Attorney Scott Thomas said. The county also emphasizes compassion for those looking to go into recovery. 'We give those folks the opportunity to go to treatment programs out of our county or many right here in our county,' Buck said. 'If they could successfully complete those programs, maybe instead of getting an active sentence, they might get on probation' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
