Snoop Dogg Accuser Files to Drop Sexual Assault Suit

This move comes nearly three months from the date of the initial filing.

Back in Feb., we told you about the unidentified woman who was suing new Death Row Records owner Snoop Dogg and one of his associates, Bishop Don β€œMagic” Juan for sexual battery and sexual assault. Now, it looks like that same woman has had a change in heart.

Per Billboard, on Wednesday, β€œJane Doe” reportedly filed a motion to dismiss the case β€œin its entirety,” though the motion was β€œwithout prejudice”—which means she could file suit again at a later time. While representatives for Jane failed to comment on the matter, a spokesperson for Snoop said: β€œIt is not surprising that the plaintiff dismissed her complaint against the defendants. Her complaint was full of false allegations and deficiencies.”

In her suit, Jane alleged that in 2013 she was taken to Juan’s home β€œagainst her will” and was subsequently forced to engage in oral sex. Immediately after, Doe says she was taken to Snoop’s studio where she was β€œ cornered her in a bathroom stall” and forced to yet again engage in oral sex.

News of the suit came just before the β€œGin & Juice” rapper was set to perform at the 2022 SuperBowl Halftime Show. Immediately following, Snoop called the claims a β€œthinly veiled attempt to extort defendant for money,” while his legal team said β€œnothing remotely resembling plaintiff’s story” ever happened.

In late March, Snoop demanded that the suit be dropped, citing several major holes in the Jane’s story.

β€œPlaintiff’s lawsuit is devoid of many of the necessary details relevant to her claim…and instead recites innuendo and irrelevant statements from his public in interviews to backfill the deficiencies,” Snoop’s lawyers said at the time.

Added Snoop’s spokesperson: β€œWhat is clear is that this shakedown scheme is disgraceful. This attempt to use the courts to advance this scheme is shameful too, and does a disservice to real victims who deserve to be believed.”
