Controversial social media influencer Ash Trevino was taken into custody this week in Texas on active felony warrants. The 36-year-old, whose full name is Ashley Lopez-Trevino, was arrested at her home on Wednesday evening and booked into Ellis County Jail.
The Arrest and Release Details
Ash Trevino was met by a patrol officer in her front yard around 7:50pm on Wednesday and was subsequently arrested without incident, according to Venus Police Chief James Groom. Chief Groom confirmed to People magazine that the Snapchat star had "active felony warrants out of the Ellis County Sheriff's Office," though the specific nature of the alleged offences remains undisclosed.
Trevino was later released from custody after posting a $15,000 bond. Shortly after her release, the media personality, who boasts over 400,000 followers on Snapchat, took to a livestream to address her fans directly.
Trevino's Livestream Reaction and Past Controversies
In clips from the stream uploaded to TikTok by a fan, Trevino appeared defiant and upbeat. "I got me an attorney already and I got my bond," she stated. "This morning, I'm already out. So, I'm blessed." She joked about her mugshot, asking followers, "How did you like my mugshot though? I was trying not to smile," and asserted, "they can't hold me down."
The influencer is no stranger to public scrutiny. Earlier this year, she sparked a major controversy during a podcast interview with OnlyFans model Camilla Araujo. Trevino revealed that she had not purchased beds for her two daughters, aged 12 and 15, despite spending significant sums on designer items for herself. The girls reportedly sleep on mattresses or blow-up beds when visiting her.
The admission led to a heated online feud after Araujo offered to buy the beds herself. Trevino later branded Araujo a "clout chaser," while Araujo criticised Trevino's parenting choices publicly.
What Happens Next?
With her release secured and legal representation in place, Ash Trevino's immediate focus appears to be moving forward. During her livestream, she mentioned plans to visit a casino and alluded to fighting the charges against her. The influencer, known for her unapologetic persona and controversial statements about dating inmates, now finds herself navigating the legal system directly.
As the case develops, more details regarding the felony warrants are expected to emerge. For now, the incident adds another layer to the complex and very public narrative surrounding the Texas-based content creator.
