A couple weeks ago I told you about Nelly being arrested for rape and him declaring his innocence.Fast forward to today...Nelly’s accuser is refusing to testify against him in court and has asked for the investigation to be dropped. However,
that doesn't seem to be enough for the police to put a halt to the investigation.
that doesn't seem to be enough for the police to put a halt to the investigation.
Police are continuing their investigation on Nelly despite the fact that the alleged victim wanted the case to drop, TMZ reports. Their law enforcement sources in Washington State are saying that the Auburn PD are continuing their investigation and planning to gather all the evidence needed to bring the case to the prosecutor's office within the next week. The fact that the alleged victim isn't looking to testify against Nelly doesn't make it impossible for him to be prosecuted, but it does make the case more difficult to follow through with.
Nelly's attorney has continued to maintain his client's innocence and said that he has confidence that the case will be closed due to the evidence, or lack thereof. He continued to say, "I would expect the police to do their due diligence."
I am interested to see how this will play out… accuser wants to drop the case but the prosecution is willing to proceed without her…I’m wondering why they feel so confident??
