Sexual assault charges against US rapper Snoop Dogg have been dropped
An unnamed woman filed a sexual assault claim against US rapper Snoop Dogg, which was later withdrawn.
Jane Doe, the woman named in the lawsuit, claimed that the US rapper sexually assaulted her after she attended one of his concerts in 2013. The allegations were false, according to Snoop Dogg’s representatives, who welcomed the voluntary dismissal.
The claim was withdrawn earlier this week, nearly two months after it was filed in California’s Central District. It was filed just days before Snoop Dogg’s appearance at the Super Bowl half-time show.
Charges against all other parties named in the case, including the rapper’s business associate, were also dropped as a result of the voluntary dismissal. Snoop Dogg’s ex-girlfriend was described as a dancer, model, host, and actress. However, the actress stated that she had never worked for him.
In a statement to the Reuters news agency on Thursday, a representative for Snoop Dogg said, “It is not surprising that the plaintiff dismissed her complaint against the defendants.”
“Her complaint was riddled with inaccuracies and flaws.”
Jane Doe’s lawyer, Matt Finkelberg, has yet to publicly comment on why the case was dropped.
Initially, the unnamed woman claimed she was left “panicked and terrified” during the alleged incident, which she claimed occurred in a TV studio bathroom.
Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, allegedly barged into her house when she was sick, forcing her to perform oral sex and masturbating in front of her.
She went on to say that she had “felt pressured” by the star because of his dominance and power.
Snoop Dogg previously called the allegations “meritless” and stated that he had never had “any sexual encounter” with her.
