Rapper T.I. and wife/vocalist, Tiny Harris (of Xscape), are in the midst of a new legal battle. A woman, identified as Jane Doe, has filed a case accusing the duo of sexual assault. The allegations claim that T.I. and Tiny drugged her at a nightclub and then took her to their hotel room, where they engaged in non-consensual sexual acts. But, T.I. and Tiny vehemently deny these allegations, stating their innocence and expressing their determination to fight the assertions in court.
In a statement to TMZ, T.I. and Tiny had this to say:
“On the heels of positivity, negativity always rears its ugly head. This plaintiff has been threatening to file this case for 3 years. For 3 years, we have emphatically and categorically declined these allegations. For 3 years we have maintained our innocence and refused to pay these extortionate demands for things we didn’t do.
For 3 years, we’ve maintained the same position while the claims in this story have changed time and time again. Our position is clear… We are innocent of these fake assertions, we will not be shaken down, and we look forward to our day in court.”
As per to the case filed by Jane Doe, the incident allegedly took place in or around 2005, when she was stationed in Los Angeles as a member of the U.S. Air Force. The plaintiff assertions that she and a friend attended a party at Coolio’s home, where they met a man named “Caviar,” who was allegedly affiliated with T.I. and Tiny.
The case alleges that T.I. and Tiny initially did not show up at the party but informed Jane Doe that they would be at an L.A. nightclub the following night.
The woman said that she encounter T.I. and Tiny at the nightclub, where they all gathered in the VIP section. She claims to have ordered two Amaretto sours for herself before Tiny allegedly handed her another drink, which she shared with her friend. The case further alleges that T.I. then proposed that Jane Doe ride with him and Tiny to their destination, while her friend would ride with “Caviar.” But, the events that unveiled did not match the initial plan.
