Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star Stevie J was arrested in Georgia on a criminal complaint that says he owes $1,107,412 in back child support.
According to TMZ, the Grammy Award winning producer fathered 2 children with a woman in 1997 and 1998. He was initially ordered to pay $6,600 a month in child support in 1999. That figure was later raised to $8500.
In 2001 Stevie stopped paying and his debt ballooned to what he currently owes.
Once he is released from jail in Georgia he will face criminal charges in New York City. Check out video of his arrest below.
**UPDATE** June 14
Stevie J's problems may just be getting started. TMZ reports that New York City is looking at all remedies to collect the $1 million he owes in back child support. That includes possibly seizing any and all properties owned by the producer.
Stevie was sent letters four times between 2011 and 2013, but never responded.
According to TMZ, he also owes the Internal Revenue Service $371,000
