Body Believed to be Lil Jon's Son Recovered from Pond in Milton
Milton Police have reported the recovery of a body from a pond, believed to be Nathan Smith, the son of rapper-producer Lil Jon. The body was discovered by divers from the Cherokee County Fire Department around 11:53 a.m. on Friday. Although the identity is yet to be officially confirmed by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office, investigators do not suspect foul play. The Milton Police Department Criminal Investigations Division will continue to treat the case as an open and active investigation. Lil Jon, whose real name is Jonathan Smith, expressed devastation and heartbreak over the loss of his son, describing him as a kind and passionate individual. The search for Nathan, also known as DJ Young Slade, intensified after he reportedly left his home disoriented on Tuesday morning, leaving his phone behind.
