Charlamagne Tha God is reportedly looking to have a lawsuit stemming from his 2001 sexual assault case thrown out on the grounds there is a lack of evidence.According to a report from Radar Online on Thursday (April 20), the radio personality filed new documents stating that the DNA rape kit from the alleged 2001 incident didn’t match his DNA, thus proving his maintained innocence.

“[Alleged victim Jessica Reid] has persisted in broadly disseminating her unsubstantiated claims, ignoring that the South Carolina Solicitor in 2018 declined her request to re-open the case due to a lack of evidence while confirming that no basis existed to bring sexual assault charges against Charlamagne,” the filing reads. “Witnesses had attested to the fact that Charlamagne had already left the party when the alleged assault occurred.”His attorney Michael Weinsten also released a statement.

“We are confident that Ms. Reid’s meritless civil lawsuit in which she represents herself will be promptly dismissed,” he said. “This is the same sexual assault claim that was fully investigated and dismissed by authorities in South Carolina more than 21 years ago.“At that time, my client voluntarily submitted his DNA, and it was confirmed his DNA was not found in her rape kit. It is also the same matter that Ms. Reid tried to re-open in 2018 that the South Carolina Solicitor General declined to re-open, suggesting among other things it was ‘not ethical’ to do so.

Reid filed a federal lawsuit against the radio host in a New York court just a few months ago in 2022, accusing him of “willfully, unlawfully, and feloniously engage in penile/vaginal intercourse with a fifteen-year-old female child” while he was 22 years old at the time.Reid didn’t cooperate with the police’s investigation after they found her allegedly “crying uncontrollably” after she attended Charlamagne’s birthday party at Short Stay Naval Recreational Center in Charleston, South Carolina in June 2001.

In addition to his DNA not being found after a rape kit was conducted, materials tested from underneath Reid’s fingernails were also analyzed and determined to contain “nothing of apparent serological evidentiary value.At the time of the initial investigation, Charlamagne Tha God pleaded guilty to a lower charge of “contributing to the delinquency of a minor” after providing her with alcohol. The shock jock served three years of probation but the sexual assault charge was dismissed.
