Freddie Gibbs Found Not Guilty In Rape Case

    Freddie Gibbs is a free man.

    The Gary, Indiana rapper was found not guilty by an Austrian court, according to a statement provided to HipHopDX from his attorney.

    Gibbs was charged with “sexual abuse of a defenseless or psychologically impaired person” after being accused of drugging and raping a woman while on tour in Austria in July 2015. He was arrested in France during another tour this past June and later extradited to Austria where he was charged. In August, he was released on bail. He faced up to 10 years in prison if found guilty.

    The 34-year-old maintained his innocence throughout the process.

    Read the full statement from attorney Theodore Simon below.

    Today, September 30, 2016 Freddie Gibbs was found not guilty. We have always maintained unconditionally and without any doubt that Freddie would be and now has been fully exonerated and completely vindicated. We are pleased and thankful that the Court recognized the same trust and confidence we and all of his fans have had in Freddie that justified and resulted in his absolute acquittal. Immediately after his acquittal I spoke with Freddie who expressed his deeply sincere, heartfelt gratitude and thanks to his fiancé Erica Dickerson for her unwavering support, for the steadfast and incomparable loyalty of his long time friend and manager Ben “Lambo” Lambert, for the extraordinary work and effort of his lawyers and for the overwhelming outpouring of love he has received from his fans. He says, “Thank you!”

    While we are appreciative of the verdict of not guilty, nothing has changed. The
    actual facts have always demonstrated that Freddie was and is 100% innocent. It is now self-evident he was wrongly accused. The trial has confirmed our belief that after a searching and complete investigation and trial the true and actual facts would be revealed – that there always was an absence of any scientific, physical, or credible evidence that would warrant in any way such an accusation.

    Freddie and his family look forward to returning to the States so he can resume
    his life and career.

      1. No way is he going to do that. He probably makes more money touring outside the country than he does over here. Europeans are bigger hip hop heads than Americans.

      1. I forgot this idiot had an album called ESGN (like espn but with a G, because he’s a G, get it).
        But yea, that next album with Madlib, not Cocaine Pinata 2, gonna be called Bandana. Obviously the pressure is on to go off as hard as they did the first time.

    1. This is great news, I knew this was all some bullshit. Having a nice glass of henny to celebrate. This fuckin c unt should be locked up for fuckin up his whole tour and costing him all that money.

    2. Freddie gibblets lawyer got this nigga singing “Put Molly all in her champagne, she ain’t even know it
      I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain’t even know it”

    3. What?? I thought only white people have that privilege and he has to go to prison just because they punish black people for no reason?? #Blacklivesmatter

      1. He has money, which means he can afford the right representation. Who said “they” punish black people for know reason. The American justice system is biased against Black people.

        1. Yeah thats why R Kelly got off after pissin on some underage girls? America is biased against poor people and poor people hate each other based on skin color. If you are rich America gt your back.

    4. Great day in Rap, Now get back to dropping dope albums, features with Devin the dude, Z-ro, Krayzie Bone, Nipsey hussle, Marsha Ambrisous or Jill Scott, with production for 9th wonder, Malib, Big Krit, Static Selektah, Let’s go Gibbs

            1. You definitely didnt post it to the wrong comment. its clearly aimed at him and you`re trying to cover yaself and failed. Which makes you triple dumb.

    5. Some lyrics from Freddy`s “187 Proof”…………:”You know who you fucking with? A nigga who got shit to lose
      I got niggas that rob you and rap.e yo bitch if they in the mood”

    6. This site is so fucking ridiculous. A Story about R A P E, yet if you try to write that word, it automatically deletes the comment. I swear this site is run by people with SEVERE AUTISM.
