According to the latest reports from Variety, T.I. is being investigated by LAPD over new sexual assault allegations.
(DJ Khaled voice) Another one. In the past few months, the rap veteran T.I. and his wife Tiny (real name Tameka Harris) were accused several times of sexual assault allegations by different anonymous sources.
The report says that the newest allegations came from a young woman who met virtually with the LAPD detectives back in April and now the LAPD spokesman has confirmed that an investigation is running.
In her statement, the anonymous woman claims the assault took place in 2005. Also, according to Daily Beast, another woman Rachelle Jenks has filed legal papers in the Las Vegas Police Department earlier this month, coming with very similar allegations.
T.I. and Tiny’s lawyer, Steve Sadow, released a statement to Variety regarding the investigation.
“The Harrises have not spoken to or been contacted by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the Las Vegas Police Department (LVPD) or, indeed, any member of law enforcement from any other jurisdiction in the country,” Sadow said. “Even assuming the story in the Daily Beast is close to accurate, it appears the LAPD ‘accuser’ has chosen once again to remain anonymous, thereby preventing us from being in a position to disprove or refute her allegations – or even examine them. Meanwhile, although we now appear for the first time to have the name of an ‘accuser’ who supposedly filed a police report with LVPD, we have absolutely zero details about her or her claim.”
