“Country Grammar” rapper, Nelly, possibly feels vindicated right about now. Why? Because his accuser has just thrown a curveball in her own case against him.
A while back, we informed you all of a UK woman- going by the name Jane Doe- who filed a criminal sex assault case against Nelly. At that time, she was adamant that after his December 2017 concert in Essex, he’d forced his penis into her mouth and masturbated in front of her several times.
Well, now Nelly will not be facing criminal charges, after Jane Doe suddenly stopped speaking with Essex police on the case.
I’ll be straight up with you ILOSM fam.’ When I initially heard about this, I instantly thought, ‘Nelly must’ve bought her silence, as many celebs do.’ But turns out, I’m clearly dead wrong in that assumption. How do I know that? Because of what Jane Doe’s attorney has now stated about their plans to still get at Nelly another way:
Via TMZ: The accuser’s attorney, Karen Koehler, tells TMZ … “We told the Essex police we would no longer participate in their shoddy investigation and shifted our focus to the federal lawsuit where we will wait on the judge to decide that outcome.”
The switch-aroo, regarding the accuser’s legal plans, has fans wondering why Jane Doe is no longer concerned with fighting for her justice if she was supposedly ‘assaulted’…but is instead focusing on making Nelly pay up, presumably some big bucks.
As for Nelly, his side of the story is probably just as consistent as it was when he immediately spoke out to rebuke his accuser’s claims in November 2018. At that time, he’d claimed that he is completely innocent and said this regarding “Jane Doe’s” lawsuit:
“The truth will come out, and I will be vindicated. These types of false allegations undermine real claims of sexual abuse/harassment by real victims. … I do NOT plan on walking away quietly. I have to speak up for my family and for the real victims strong enough to come forward and face people that have actually assaulted them.”
Not sure how this lawsuit is gonna play out, but we’ll keep y’all posted.
