<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">TSR Updatez: The Caddo Parish District Attorney’s Office in Louisiana announced it is dropping the rape charges it brought against Mystikal due to lack of evidence.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The grand jury in his case found that there wasn’t enough evidence to move forward with the charges, a spokesperson for the DA’s office told <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2020/12/17/mystikal-louisiana-rape-charges-dismissed-grand-jury/">TMZ.</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mystikal maintained his innocence in the case and his </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">attorney, Joel Peace, told TMZ the charges went away because “new scientific evidence emerged causing the Grand Jury to take a second look at the rape allegations made against [him].&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mystikal turned himself in back in August 2018 on a first-degree rape and second-degree kidnapping charges stemming from a 2016 invident involving a woman at a casino where he was performing. Mystikal ended up spending 18 months behind bars but was <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/tsrfreshout-mystikal-has-been-released-from-prison-after-posting-3-million-bond-in-rape-case/">finally able to his $3 million bond</a> back in February thanks to an advance he got from a new recording deal.</span></p>
<p>Also indicted on the same charges for his alleged involvement, is 26-year-old Averweone Darnell Holman, whose bond was also set at $3 million.</p>
<p>Tenichia Monieck Wafford has reportedly been indicted for obstruction of justice after police claimed she tried to make the alleged victim to repeal her story. Wafford’s bond was set at $500,000.</p>
<p>Wafford claimed the victim was lying about her story. The details about the assault weren’t immediately available.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Prosecutors offered Mystikal a plea deal before the case ever went to trial but he rejected the offer. Mystikal&#8217;s defense teams believed the alleged victim had major credibility issues and were more than ready to have their day in court.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since his release, Mystikal went back to work in the studio and booking gigs. He performed at a festival in Orlando back in April.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’ll keep you posted on any updates.</span></p>
