Irv Gotti charged with sexual assault and abuse in Miami

Irv Gotti is at the center of a sexual harassment and abuse lawsuit. A woman is suing the founder of Murder Inc. Records for allegedly taking advantage of her in Miami, Atlanta and Saint Martin, according to the Miami New Times.

The broadcaster does not name the plaintiff, and this is also true of the court documents she filed in Miami-Dade on July 11. She is listed as Jane Doe and claims that Irv assaulted and abused her on multiple occasions between 2020 and 2022. In addition, the woman says she was placed in a psychiatric hospital due to her repeated suffering.

“As a result of this sexually abusive relationship, the plaintiff suffered severe emotional and psychological harm that required her to be hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital. These injuries continue and affect the plaintiff to this day,” court documents state.

Lawsuit explains connections between Jane Doe and Irv Gotti

According to Jane Doe, Irv Gotti’s abuse began the same year they met. She says a mutual friend introduced them to a poker tournament in the summer of 2020 and he later invited her to Saint Martin.

However, after landing, Irv Gotti forced her to have sex under threat of sending her home, the woman said. The lawsuit states that she gave in “due to his power and influence in the music world.” Despite the rape incident, the two began dating after the trip to St. Martin.

But things didn’t get better. Instead, Jane Doe said, she suffered “constant abuse” from Irv Gotti. Another example she cited involved a trip to Miami in January 2022. During her stay at the Four Seasons, Jane Doe said, he forced her to give him oral sex in an elevator.

Later that same year, he allegedly committed the same act. This time, however, the allegedly forced incident occurred in an Uber in Atlanta. After this attack, the relationship between Gotti and Doe ended.

Irv Gotti has not commented publicly on the allegations in the lawsuit. Meanwhile, it is unclear whether Jane Doe is seeking financial compensation, but the Miami New Times reports that she is seeking a jury trial.
