Singer Kanye West can breath a sigh of relief now that he will likely not have to face criminal charges for laying hands on a 18-year old troublemaker as TMZ is reporting that a settlement has been struck with Kanye’s accuser to the tune of $250,000.00 not to proceed with criminal charges.
Sources familiar with the negotiations tell TMZ … the disrespectful young man who allegedly hurled racial epithets at Kim earlier this month has agreed to the civil settlement and now feels satisfied enough that he does NOT want to go forward with a criminal prosecution.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … the D.A. has not decided whether to charge Kanye with battery. The reality is … there’s almost no chance of that happening. First, the D.A. now has an uncooperative victim. Second, the victim’s alleged racial epithets will not sit well with the jury. And there are probably lots of Kanye fans in the jury pool.
We have also learned that Kanye’s accuser was getting greedy and wanted over a million dollars to resolve the incident however, Kanye’s team that his request was outrageous.
Long story short, there is no case.
