T.I. and Tiny have been making headlines for very controversial reasons over the past one. Former close friend, Sabrina Peterson, went on social media in late January to claim how she was allegedly abused by the couple and even had a gun pointed at her by T.I. She also posted screenshots of women who claimed to have been sexually abused by the couple. Over 30 women have come out.
T.I. and Tiny have maintained their innocence all while Peterson recently filed a defamation lawsuit against the two. There is only one attorney, Tyrone A. Blackburn, who has since requested investigations in Georgia and Florida on behalf of 11 of the victims. Now, he supposedly claims that the couple’s lawyer, Steve Sadow, proposed reaching a deal with the victims, per CBS 46.
Blackburn responded by stating that this could happen only if T.I. and Tiny turn themselves in. If not, then he will attempt to get investigators to end up bringing charges on the table.
“[Attorney] Steve Sadow reached out to me looking to make a deal on behalf of T.I. and Tiny,” said Blackburn in a statement. “And I told Steve Sadow my clients want justice. So, if the deal involves Tiny and T.I. turning themselves in and admitting to the crimes they have committed then fine we got a deal. But if it does not, then I would prefer the investigators do that work and to bring criminal charges against Tiny and T.I. for what they’ve done throughout the years.”
Sadow responded by claiming that the notion that he proposed a deal is false. Sadow only reached out in an attempt to possibly receive information about the accusers.
“I understand that at a virtual press conference today, attorney Blackburn claimed the Harrises reached out to him through me to supposedly make a deal. That is patently false. I reached out to see if he would share any information since his name was posted on Instagram as the attorney for Sabrina Peterson. Blackburn repeatedly refused to provide the names of his accuser-clients or any corroborating or supporting evidence of his groundless claims. The Harrises repeat that they are confident if a thorough and fair investigation is conducted, no charges will be brought.”
