JAY-Z has launched a lawsuit against his rape accuser, stating that Jane Doe took part in an “evil conspiracy” against him. The suit reads the woman admitted to attorney Tony Buzbee the assault never happened. Buzbee and lawyer David Fortney are also sued.
According to TMZ, the suit highlights Buzbee as a leader, urging the woman “to go forward with the false narrative of the assault” in hopes of “a maximum payday.”
The suit was filed in the state of Alabama, with Hov requesting the woman’s identity be withheld, permitting the use of Jane Doe, due to a “history of mental illness and medical vulnerabilities, including instances of self-harm.”
Hov is seeking a jury trial and unspecified damages.
