Three months after dismissing the earlier case, Snoop Dogg‘s accuser has refiled her sexual assault lawsuit against the superstar rapper/actor.
Referred to as Jane Doe, in February the alleged victim filed a lawsuit against the musician (born Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr) and his associate, pimp-turned-Christian minister Bishop Don ‘Magic’ Juan, claiming both men forced her to give them oral sex in 2013.
In April of this year, Doe dropped the case “without prejudice”, which allows a plaintiff to refile at a later date, and she did so on Wednesday (7.20) by resubmitting the lawsuit in a Los Angeles federal court.
On Thursday (7.21,) Jane Doe’s attorney, Matt E.O. Finkelberg, sent an email to the Los Angeles Times, writing:
“We have obtained new information which we believe adds significant credibility and corroboration to the alleged scheme of Defendants and the alleged acts they took against my client and others.’ “We believe that this new information stated in the complaint which includes details of what allegedly happened to other alleged victims, including an alleged attempted rape against an alleged victim by Defendant SNOOP DOGG, is important and demonstrates how serious our claims are.”
The updated filing includes the sexual assault, sexual battery and sex-trafficking claims from the original as well as new allegations of defamation, infliction of emotional distress and unlawful retaliation in violation of California labour codes.
A spokesperson for Snoop Dogg told the publication that the updated lawsuit was “meritless” and “riddled with and predicated upon falsehoods and inaccuracies” and said his client was looking forward to disproving the allegations.
