Mystikal has turned himself in to police after a warrant for his arrest was issued this past weekend.
The 46-year-old rapper reportedly submitted to the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Department and was booked for first-degree rape in Shreveport, Louisiana. Bond has been set at $2 million.
A source within Mystikal’s camp claims the rape charge is fabricated. He intends to plead not guilty.
(The original version of this article was published on August 20, 2017 and can found below.)
Mystikal is wanted by Shreveport Police in connection to an alleged sexual assault.
Police say a woman was raped on October 22, 2016 in downtown Shreveport, according to a report by KSLA. An investigation matched evidence to Mystikal, whose real name is Michael Tyler, and 26-year-old Averweone Holman. Warrants were issued for both men, who were each charged with one count of first-degree rape.
Holman was arrested on Friday (August 18) by US Marshals in Killeen, Texas. The search for Mystikal continues. Each man’s bond has been set at $2 million.
Another person, Tenichia Wafford, is also wanted by police in connection to the case. The 42-year-old woman is accused of trying to get the alleged victim to drop the charges. She has been charged with accessory after the fact to first-degree rape.
This is not the first time Mystikal has faced a sexual assault-related charge. He previously pleaded guilty to sexual battery and no contest to extortion in 2003. Consequently, he served a six-year prison sentence. The “Shake Ya Ass” rapper was released in 2010 and registered as a sex offender.
If he saved money from Shake Ya Ass, Danger and Bouncin, he could have just paid her ass off and keep predatoring like R Kelly.
Special place in hell for fuckboys like you. I hope you like it hot.
Wtf are you talking bout? Nothing he said about R.Kelly was false
Face the facts muthafucka! Mystikal and R. Kelly are sexual predators. Think before you type dipshit!
he dindu nuffin..it’s the white devil always tryna keep a brotha down!
Seems like he fixed his carreer in the jail. What a pity. He was one of my childhood heros.
He warned you. He says “Shake your ass, BUT WATCH YOURSELF.” This sight will soon be called hedindunuffinPCDX.
lmao xD
mystikal be always raping bitches lol
Let’s yet again have another huge round of applause for the FUCKING IDIOTS over at Dx for running a story on “r@pe” but banning the word from the comments so they just disappear..
This guys fucked…no wonder he aint been releasing new music too busy with his side activity lol hope they tear him and his boys asses up real good
both Adebisi and Schillinger are eager to turn him into their prag lol
Welp, it’s a rap!
It’s a ra pe
The stats are in..5 out of 6 people enjoy gang r@pe
Fuck all u racist motherfuckers in the comments. Even if he did do it then she probably deserved it.
No one said anything racist in the comments ya idiot
She probably deserved it?? What a charmer you must be.
Someone go save the bear
Sometimes you just gotta take the poontang. #FREEMYSTIKAL #…AGAIN
Dumb ass
Again!!! WTF????!!!! Serioisly such a dope emcee and he’s throwing it away. With that previous charge he’s got no chance in hell.
Mystical, I Knew their was something wrong with your head, Fuckin Rapist
is it that hard to get pussy? or is he getting additional pleasure for abusing them? i just dont get it
He was always too pussy to fight men, so he got his kicks from r@ping women and making them suffer.
another rapper implicated in sexual abuse, what a surprise!
I already hated this guy for ruining the Stutter remix. Now I’ll never be able to listen to the last half of that song again.
im not gonna listen to still smoking in the same way, that song reminds me of the times when i started smoking
Listen to trying to stop smoking by Trick daddy feat Mystikal at least I think that’s what it’s called
I don’t know what type of circumstances he is in nor do none of us don’t have facts on the matter, however…in my opinion, and the way how this system is set up, I believe Mystikal is being set up. Whatever happen to innocent until proven guilty?
Don’t r@pe people.
The “evidence” they have is most likely his DNA which I’m sure they have in some sorta national database for convicted sex offenders. Even if thats true it doesn’t mean hes 100% quilty it just means he was swxually involved. It also says another guy was picked up on the same charges which is bad news for Mystical. Who you think the prosecutor offers the best deal some no-name guy or a “gangsta rapper” (at least in their eyes) who already served years on a sex crime? Lets just hope it aint true and the accusers just out for a money grab and hes able to prove it. However, if he really did what hes being charged with then he needs the book thrown at him. I have 3 younger sisters and would expect nothing less from the courts if one of them where the victim.
They got DNA evidence it doesn’t look to good for mystical if its true he need some help playing wit your freedom like this is crazy
Evidence doesn’t mean they have his DNA. Evidence could be an IG pic of them together.
I forgot he came out 2010, but hasn’t released a solo project yet. Gawdamn. Work hard in this industry or get the fuck outta here…the devil makes work for idle thumbs…
Old habits die hard
Fuckin dumbass should have at least wore a condom and not left dna inside her. You’d think after getting locked up for rap e already that he would have done it right the second time. Smfh.
yo i thought he got something to do with the raping but dint do it
What?
Come again?
English mother uffer, do you speak it?
could just be some young ass hood rat who hooked up with Mystikal trying to get money and attention by via an easy target like a registered black sex offender??
And if it is a hood rat fuck him!
Sex offenders should face capital punishment first time round!!!
I am going to need to hear all the facts
What a wasted talent. Like a DMX of the South. He has one of the most unque styles of any rapper
