Metro Boomin
Found Not Liable
In Civil Sexual Assault Trial
Metro Boomin has been found not liable in his civil sexual assault case, brought by a woman named Vanessa LeMaistre, who claimed the superproducer drugged and raped her during a studio session back in 2016. The jury trial concluded on Thursday after 3 days of deliberation … both Metro and Vanessa testified in the case.
Vanessa alleged she sought comfort through a platonic friendship after losing a child, but claimed back in September 2016, she blacked out after consuming Xanax and alcohol and woke up to find Metro raping her.
Vanessa was seeking more than $3 million in damages, but Metro said he never heard any accusations until the lawsuit was filed 9 years later, and testified that any relations between the two had been consensual.
Young Thug was in court to support Metro … which was seemingly a friendship favor repaid from when he was battling his own legal issues!!!
