Big Tigger Arrested for Assault, Cruelty to Children, According to Jail Records

Morgan was released after posting about $10,000 in bonds, and investigators have not said what led to the child cruelty charge.

  • On Saturday, June 20, 2026, the Sandy Springs Police Department arrested Atlanta radio personality Big Tigger, whose real name is Darian Morgan, on felony charges of aggravated battery and third-degree cruelty to children in Fulton County.
  • Records indicate the charges stem from an alleged June 9 incident involving Morgan's wife, Alicia Brown, though it remains unclear whether this arrest correlates with a domestic dispute investigation reported last month.
  • Morgan secured release after posting a $10,000 bond, with $9,000 tied to the aggravated battery charge and $1,000 for child cruelty, while court orders prohibit him from contacting Brown or coming within 200 yards.
  • On Monday, June 22, Morgan posted to Instagram stating, "Life is a cruel teacher... she loves to give you the test first, and the lesson later," without publicly confirming the arrest.
  • The court instructed Morgan to have no direct or indirect contact with Brown, allowing third-party communication "only for the purposes of visitation," while prosecutors have not yet issued a formal indictment.
