Woman Who Accused Snoop Dogg Of Sexual Assault Days Before Super Bowl Drops Lawsuit
A woman who alleged that rapper Snoop Dogg and his friend sexually assaulted her after a concert in May 2013 has dropped her lawsuit against them.
The woman filed the complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California in February, just days before Snoop Dog was set to perform in the Super Bowl halftime show. On Wednesday, the woman’s attorney, Matt Finkelberg, filed a notice to withdraw the lawsuit without prejudice, according to court records.
“It is not surprising that the plaintiff dismissed her complaint against the defendants,” a spokesperson for Snoop Dogg told Reuters on Thursday. “Her complaint was full of false allegations and deficiencies.”
The woman claimed Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, and his friend Donald Campbell, also known as Bishop Don Magic Juan, had forced her to perform oral sex and masturbated in front of her in the bathroom she was using, according to Reuters.
In response to the lawsuit, Snoop Dogg’s representatives released a statement denying he had “any sexual encounter whatsoever” with the woman.
The woman's lawyer told Rolling Stone that the dismissal of the lawsuit was submitted in a way that preserves her right to file again on the same grounds and that the lawyer stands by his client's accusations.
On Feb. 24, Snoop Dogg had filed a motion to dismiss the claims in Los Angeles federal court.
