Pilot Disputes Ex-Assistant's Lil Wayne Jet Assault Allegations
25 Jul
Summary
- Pilot's testimony reportedly refutes former assistant's assault claims.
- Rapper claims assistant had no significant injuries post-incident.
- New evidence prompts request for a second deposition of former assistant.
Lil Wayne's defense in an alleged private jet assault case hinges on pilot testimony, according to recent legal filings. The rapper's legal team reported that the pilot was deposed and allegedly contradicted the account provided by Andrew Williams, Wayne's former assistant. Williams initiated a lawsuit in 2022, claiming Wayne assaulted him aboard a private jet.
Williams asserted he was injured while attempting to de-escalate a dispute between Wayne and the pilot. However, Wayne's filings indicate the pilot's testimony "impeached" Williams' version of events. Furthermore, the musician highlighted that subsequent medical examinations of Williams found no significant injuries, with one provider prescribing ibuprofen.
Wayne's team is seeking permission to conduct a second deposition with Williams to address this new information. The musician's filings suggest that multiple medical providers found no injuries on the former assistant.
