American Idol Season Five’s Kellie Pickler is once again dealing with an incarcerated father.

While the North Carolina native is preparing to head out on tour with Brad Paisley, her father, Clyde Pickler Jr, is in a Stanley County, North Carolina jail, where he’s facing multiple charges, including assault on a female, communicating threats, and assault with a deadly weapon.

Kellz’ stepmom has accused C.P of threatening to kill her:

“You know that guy I stabbed in Florida that didn’t die? Well it’s gonna be different this time because you are going to die,” Clyde Jr. allegedly said.

Pickler is now being held on a $20,000 bond. His next court appearance will be on February 28.
