After accusing Dr. Dre‘s estranged wife Nicole Young of embezzling funds from a joint business last month, Dre’s business partner claims she did it again.
On Tuesday (September 22), TMZ reported Dre’s Record One Studio co-founder Larry Chatman had his attorneys send a letter to Young accusing her of taking out another $31K from their bank account after being no longer legally authorized.
Dre and Chatman co-founded the studio in 2015 under an LLC, where Young was named a trustee and signatory on the LLC’s checking account. However, Chatman says Young was removed after she wrote herself a $363,571.85 check from the company’s bank account last month amid her divorce from Dre.
According to Chatman, the second check for $31,457 came two days after she received notice of no longer being on the board or account. He believes this is grounds for a grand theft charge, which his team is reportedly threatening to file.

After calling the first accusation a “low-grade PR stunt,” Young’s attorney Bryan Freedman once again dismissed Chatman’s claims.
“This is a clear attempt to smear Nicole’s name,” he told TMZ. “As people are well aware, banks do not give out money to people who are not authorized to receive it.”
Prior to what’s becoming an extremely nasty $1 billion divorce, Young and Dre were married for 24 years and welcomed two children. She is currently seeking almost $2 million a month in spousal support.
Wow, I’m sure Dre is gonna want to make some music after this, not just to make money, but to get this shit off his chest!
As much as I hate misfortune upon people I respect, I think this will be the case for Dr. Dre. Pretty sure he will channel all this energy from this fuckery and turn into some dope shit!
I know the word “psycho” gets thrown around a lot during divorces, but I think this lady is legitimately psycho! Like ok he did you wrong, get you a good payout and be done, stop trying to get extra!
Damn…Dre might go the Shady route and Ask Em for help, Pretty sure that He’d respond with,” If You Ever Kill That Nicole, I’ll Show You Where Ocean Is.”
She’s a man, baby!!!! Yeah!!!
That’s not true. I work at the bank and that could easily be overlooked in error especially if she was once on the account
He should’ve filed first, he had to see the signs. Plus, his past with woman may not play in his favor with a jerk judge. Anywho, if it’s a prenup she dragging it out for nothing. I’ve never heard of her doing anything, nor saw her til now. She definitely not a musician trying to take credit from a musical legend. Sad…
