Alicia Brown, the estranged wife of radio personality Big Tigger, is publicly addressing her recent arrest for the first time, saying through a source that she is cooperating with authorities as she faces pending criminal charges.
According to a source close to Brown who spoke with TMZ, she is working closely with her attorneys following her arrest and remains optimistic as the legal process moves forward. The statement comes days after law enforcement in Georgia arrested Brown on warrants tied to allegations originating in Maryland.
The case has drawn significant attention because it involves allegations connected to a child who was reported missing years ago, as well as an ongoing and highly publicized legal dispute between Brown and Big Tigger.
Alicia Brown Says She Is Working With Her Attorneys
A source close to Brown told TMZ that she is actively addressing the allegations alongside her legal team.
According to the source, “Alicia is collaborating with her legal team to address the recent allegations. She remains optimistic and is handling the current charges as she works with her legal team and cooperates with authorities.”
The source also said Brown will not be making any additional public comments regarding her arrest at this time.
The statement marks the first public response attributed to Brown since authorities took her into custody.
At this stage, Brown has not publicly addressed the specific allegations beyond the statement provided through the source.
Authorities Detail the Arrest
According to the Hart County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia, deputies received a Be On the Lookout (BOLO) alert after learning Brown was wanted on kidnapping-related warrants issued in Maryland.
Authorities said deputies, assisted by the Georgia State Patrol, located the vehicle Brown was driving and carried out what officials described as a felony traffic stop.
Law enforcement stated that Brown was arrested without incident.
Investigators also said two young children were inside the vehicle when it was stopped and were safely recovered.
Authorities have stated that one of those children is Brown’s son with Big Tigger.
Officials further allege that Brown is wanted in Maryland in connection with the 2019 disappearance of a 10-year-old child. They also say she is wanted in Georgia on a felony charge of interference with child custody.
Those allegations remain pending, and the charges have not been adjudicated in court.
A New Chapter in an Ongoing Legal Dispute
Brown’s arrest comes amid an already contentious legal conflict involving her and Big Tigger.
TMZ previously reported that Big Tigger was arrested last month following an alleged domestic incident involving Brown.
According to the previous report, he faces charges including aggravated battery and cruelty to children.
TMZ also obtained video that allegedly showed an incident between the estranged couple.
The current criminal case involving Brown is separate from the allegations previously brought against Big Tigger.
No court has reached findings regarding either set of allegations, and both legal matters remain pending.
Big Tigger, whose broadcasting career has made him a recognizable figure in radio and television, has recently found himself at the center of multiple legal headlines involving his estranged wife.
The latest developments have expanded the legal proceedings beyond the couple’s domestic dispute, introducing allegations spanning multiple states.
According to authorities, Maryland issued the kidnapping-related warrants, while Georgia authorities arrested Brown after locating her vehicle.
The legal proceedings in both jurisdictions are expected to determine how the case moves forward.
Why It Matters
The case involves serious criminal allegations, multiple jurisdictions, and issues relating to child custody.
Because the allegations remain pending, the legal process—including extradition, court hearings, and any future proceedings—will play a central role in determining the outcome.
Brown’s decision, through a source, to state that she is cooperating with authorities provides the first indication of how her legal team intends to approach the case publicly.
High-profile legal disputes often unfold under intense public scrutiny, particularly when they involve family matters and well-known public figures.
While headlines have focused on the allegations and arrests, the court process will ultimately determine the facts. For now, Brown has chosen to limit her public comments, saying only that she is working with her attorneys and cooperating with authorities as the legal proceedings continue.
Court proceedings are expected to determine the next phase of the case. Until then, the allegations against Alicia Brown remain pending, and no findings of guilt have been made.
