Snoop Dogg Denies Allegations of Sexual Assault

Well we expected Snoop Dogg to hit headlines this weekend. After all, he is set to give a killer performance at the Super Bowl this Sunday. Instead, Snoop and one of his associates are facing allegations of sexual assault. The victim is an unidentified woman, who purportedly is seeking 10 million dollars in damages. Sexual assault is a very serious crime; victims should be heard and helped, not blamed. So why then, is Snoop publicly mocking his accuser on Instagram?

Alleged Assault

The alleged assault occurred in 2013, according to the unnamed victim. At the time, Snoop Dogg’s news network, GGN, was just starting to gather steam. According to the victim, on May 29 she had attended one of Snoop’s concerts in Anaheim, California. After the show, one Bishop Don Juan, a self-professed pimp, offered her a ride home. She fell asleep in the car and didn’t realize that Bishop had taken her to his own house. Rather than leave, she decided to spend the night on his couch because she was too tired to complain. Early the next morning, the woman claims that Bishop woke her up and forced her to perform oral sex. He then gave her a dress and offered her an audition to be Snoop Dog’s “weather girl.”

After this, Bishop and the women left and went to Snoop Dogg’s studio. Once there, the woman reports she became physically ill and entered the bathroom. While there, Snoop Dogg allegedly corner her and forced her to perform oral sex while she was defecating on the toilet. When it was all over, Snoop refused to hire her because she, “refused to willingly and enthusiastically give oral sex.”

Snoop Dogg’s Reaction

While some men might balk under the weight of such a serious claim, Snoop Dogg is utterly unmoved. In fact, Snoop, who just celebrated his 30-year anniversary with his high school sweetheart, is making light of the whole incident. He maintains that the entire story is fabricated and dismisses the woman as an opportunist. In a post on his Instagram, he gave warning about “gold digger season,”

Fans of the rapper seem to be leaning on his side. They believe it is peculiar for the victim not just to wait so long before suing, but to do so just before Snoop’s Super Bowl performance, and just after his acquisition of Death Row Records.
