Dr. Luke's Legal Team Shares New Statement About Katy Perry Rape Accusations

Dr. Luke‘s legal team is speaking out again after he was accused of raping Katy Perry in text messages revealed in New York court documents.

Earlier in the week, the team denied the claims that Dr. Luke raped Katy, which was revealed during a text conversation between Kesha and Lady Gaga.

The new statement comes immediately following a note from Kesha‘s team stating that the information about Dr. Luke‘s sexual misconduct came from the “CEO of a major record label,” which Kesha and Gaga were discussing privately and was not intended to be made public in court.

“Kesha and her legal team are fully aware that Ms. Perry has unequivocally confirmed that she was not raped by Dr. Luke. Kesha and her attorneys should be ashamed of themselves for not publicly acknowledging this and apologizing,” Dr. Luke‘s legal told Just Jared.

They added, “Instead, they continue to publicize this and other falsehoods. In fact, Kesha‘ s false accusation involving Ms. Perry came to public light only because Kesha‘s attorneys filed the accusation publicly.”

“Kesha and her legal team are fully aware that Ms. Perry has unequivocally confirmed that she was not raped by Dr. Luke. Kesha and her attorneys should be ashamed of themselves for not publicly acknowledging this and apologizing.

Instead, they continue to publicize this and other falsehoods. In fact, Kesha‘s false accusation involving Ms. Perry came to public light only because Kesha‘s attorneys filed the accusation publicly.

Kesha‘s latest press release saying that a music executive told her that Dr. Luke had raped Katy Perry is fully contradicted by that executive. He denied saying that.

Contrary to her latest defamatory press statement, the evidence, including sworn testimony, will show the full extent and scope of the scurrilous falsehoods Kesha spread.

As the old and true adage goes: Oh what a tangled web you weave when first you practice to deceive.”
