The alleged behavior came at a time when West was allegedly consuming nitrous oxide — which Doe said “played a role in West’s decision-making at the time.”

The lawsuit alleges that Doe’s employment ended in mid-May when he received a call from a teacher at Donda Academy “about safety concerns they were having about some students.”

West has notably seen his career implode amid anti-Semitic comments – starting with a vile post in 2022 in which he used “death con 3 on Jewish people” – prompting him to be promptly dropped by his agency CAA, production company MRC, Adidas, Gap. and Balenciaga.

The symptoms of West’s “widely reported bipolar diagnosis and the side effects of long-term nitrogen gas abuse are strikingly similar,” the affidavit said, with symptoms including “erratic behavior, mood swings, paranoia and violence.”

Yiannopoulos claims a Yeezy employee told him they witnessed West “self-managing the nitrous gas supplied by Connelly.”

Yiannopoulos – who described his duties as “solving mysteries and solving problems where others have failed.” said the affidavit accompanied a complaint he filed with the California Dental Board accusing Connelly of “reckless, unethical, dishonest, exploratory and, upon information and belief, illegal conduct.” ‘

He said he was “motivated by urgent concerns” about West’s health and safety, both in his own capacity and “on behalf of several individuals close to him.”

A representative for Connelly told TMZ that Yiannopoulos’ claims were “not only factually incorrect, but deliberately misleading.”
