It was the second visit to jail for the Valorant pro player Hunter "SicK" Mims in three months for the charges of criminal trespassing. As reported first by Valorant journalist George Geddes, the player was arrested on May 8 for the same criminal offence and got released on May 9. It was later confirmed by Dot Esports that the player has been arrested on the similar grounds after verifying it from the Collin County court records.
Today news publications are planning to post about SicK. I want you all to know from me.
He was arrested again today for criminal trespassing, the same charge as before.
You may have seen he acted differently on stream. He isn't well, please support him when he returns. 1/2Advertisement— George Geddes (@GeorgeCGed) May 8, 2023
SicK was previously arrested for criminal trespassing on March 4, 2023 after an altercation in a Ferrari showroom. The player is currently the part of inactive roster of Sentinels. SicK is known for his aggressive approach in Valorant that has helped him to win a significant number of esports tournaments.
In recent times, the player's strange behavior has drawn attention of fans and his former teammates. Last month, he tweeted images of a drug and behaved erratically while livestreaming on Twitch using slurry speech against his own viewers in the chat.
SicK's former teammates have raised concern over his behavior and urged fans to ignore his actions on the social media. Shahzeb "ShahZam" Khan took to the twitter just before a day of his second arrest and asked fans to overlook the player's behavior. ShahZaM said "I promise this isn't who he is". In a recent livestream, ShahZaM also revealed that he has been actively trying to reach out to SicK and help him in getting out from the current situation.
Hey guys, I have Sick blocked so I can make this tweet. He’s not himself right now, please try your best to ignore his tweets and erratic behavior for now. I promise this isn’t who he is. Thanks for being understanding.

Meanwhile SicK after being released twice from the jail took to the twitter to inform that he will start livstreaming soon. The player in a follow-up tweet mentioned "They say I'm a menace to society". It looks like the player is doing these strange things under the influence of something.
On the other hand, Sentinels did benched SicK following his first arrest but continued to support his family in the difficult times.
