In a civil lawsuit filed in federal court, Fat Joe’s former hype man Terrance “T.A.” Dixon alleges that his former boss Fat Joe forced him “into humiliating situations, including sex acts performed under duress and surveillance, accompanied by threats of abandonment in foreign countries if [he] refused compliance.”
The lawsuit alleges Dixon was forced into 4,000 sex acts demanded by Fat Joe. In addition to these allegations, Dixon claims Fat Joe engaged in sexual activity with minor girls who were 15 and 16 years old.
The suit additionally names Jay-Z’s Roc Nation, claiming that the company, which represents Fat Joe, knowingly participated in “concealing, transferring, and manipulating” Dixon’s authorship rights and royalty interests and sought to intimidate, harass and obstruct the hype man’s legitimate claims against Fat Joe, Torres and Jospitre.
Similar to the allegations against Sean P Diddy Combs, these allegations accuse Fat Joe of orchestrating, watching, and directing sexual orgies involving minors and Dixon in various locations including Miami, North Carolina, Germany, Spain, and Wisconsin.
