Kidd Kidd was arrested earlier this week on allegations that he strangled and assaulted a woman, Maurita Robinson, back in February. Now his lawyer, Scott Leemon, has released a statement saying that Robinson’s claims are bogus.
“The New York allegations are totally baseless,” Leemon said in a statement to XXL. “They were made 4 months later by a woman who has a history of making false allegations against Mr. Stewart. We are confident once the District Attorney’s office investigate the matter, Kidd Kidd will be vindicated.”
