Mystikal reportedly turned himself in to the authorities after being charged with raping a woman in Louisiana.
According to TMZ, Mystikal–real name Michael Lawrence Tyler–turned himself over to the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Department and was booked for first degree rape. Another man, Averweone Holman was also charged for the incident, which occurred in 2016 and involved a woman at a casino where Mystikal was performing. However, no more details are available than that.
TMZ reported that Mystikal intends to plead “not guilty” and that he believes the charges are completely without merit. He is currently being held on $2 million bond.
A woman named Tenichia Wafford is also wanted by the police in connection to the incident. Wafford is accused of having called the alleged rape victim to try to pressure her into dropping the charges. However, Wafford claimed that she had called the woman because they were friends, nothing more.
Wafford also said that the victim herself had stated that there was no rape, though it is unclear if she meant that there was no sexual contact or if there was and it was consensual.
Wafford, however, is still on the run from police, and it is not clear why she would do so if her story were true.
