Legal expert Holly Davis talked exclusively to Nicki Swift about why Nicki Minaj’s possible lawsuit against rape victim Jennifer Hough could be tough for the singer. Davis, an Austin-based family law attorney of Kirker Davis, says that Kenneth Petty’s past is a problem for his outstanding case. “Ultimately, Nicki’s husband has some major problems from his past, and a conviction for rape is a major question of his character,” Davis told Nicki Swift. “People serve their time and change their ways, but it is reasonable to expect a harassment lawsuit from his accuser if he still attempts to contact her about something he admitted that he did in his past.”
The Austin legal expert said it would be up to the court to decide if Petty harassed Hough. However, Davis said, “I think it’s a bad idea for anyone to communicate with their victim after they were convicted of raping them. So Nicki’s husband may have to deal with the financial consequences of continuing communications with his former victim.”
The Grammy-nominated rapper’s fans have worried that Minaj’s husband’s legal problems would drag the singer down since she met Petty. Minaj made her relationship with childhood friend Petty Instagram official in December 2018. Minaj posted a photo of the couple on Instagram with the Adele-nodding caption, “Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happens?… it’s no secret… that the both of us… are running out of time.”
