Elijah Blue Allman, frontman of Deadsy and son of music legends Cher and the late Gregg Allman, has been arrested twice in New Hampshire amid a continuing series of legal and personal challenges.
According to authorities, the first arrest stemmed from an incident on February 27 at St. Paul’s School in Concord, NH. Allman was charged with two counts of simple assault, one count of criminal trespass, and one count of criminal threatening. Police reports indicate that Allman claimed to be a parent of a prospective student in order to gain access, with the alleged incidents occurring in the school dining hall.
After being released on bail, Allman was arrested again on March 1st for allegedly breaking into a residence in Windham, NH. Police stated he had smashed a back door and was discovered smoking a cigarette on a sofa by homeowners who had hidden in a closet.
He was charged with burglary, two counts of criminal mischief, and breach of bail after authorities disputed his claim that he had permission to be in the house. The arrest reportedly occurred without incident.
Allman was scheduled to appear in court on March 11, but his hearing was postponed after he secured new legal representation.
This troubling string of incidents follows a highly publicized 2024 legal battle with his mother, Cher, who sought a temporary conservatorship over Allman‘s finances due to concerns over his long-documented struggles with drug abuse and mental health.
Allman, who is entitled to an annual trust fund of approximately $120,000 from his late father, contested the matter in court, citing ongoing attendance at AA meetings and care from therapist Dr. Howard Samuels. The dispute ended in a settlement.
Allman‘s personal difficulties have also impacted his musical career. After relaunching Deadsy in 2024, he publicly apologized to fans for delays in vinyl pre-orders. In June 2025, he was reportedly hospitalized following an overdose, highlighting ongoing concerns for his wellbeing.
