Grammy Award-winning music producer Detail was arrested on Wednesday August 5, after 15 sexual assault charges and five separate felony assault charges were filed against him.
The 41-year-old producer was held on nearly $6.3 million bail, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Detail, whose real name is Noel Christopher Fisher, was charged on July 31 with 15 counts of sexual assault and five counts of felony assault, the statement said. He is accused of crimes between 2010 and 2018.
Detectives submitted the case to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office in January, the statement said.
“Mr. Fisher was just arrested some hours ago and I have not had an opportunity to speak to him or look at the charges. I am quite certain he will enter a not guilty plea and contest to the fullest all of these allegations,” his attorney, Irwin Mark Bledstein, said in an email late Wednesday night.
In the past, several female artists have accused him of inappropriate touching, misconduct and sexual abuse
Back in 2019, a model and aspiring singer was awarded $15 million in a Los Angeles lawsuit after she accused the producer of abusing and raping her.
She is one of six women who have spoken out publicly against what they said was Fisher’s “sexual aggression.”
In court documents published by The Blast, the women alleged he raped them in front of other people, abused them daily, and once assaulted them together for six hours straight.
Detail won a Grammy in 2015 for co-writing the Beyonce and Jay-Z hit “Drunk in Love” and has also produced hits for Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, and Wiz Khalifa.
