B-13 Peer Review
To break it down clearly:
- Criminal cases (e.g., if someone were to press charges) require proof "beyond a reasonable doubt", which is a much higher standard.
- Civil cases, like lawsuits for defamation, assault, or emotional distress, only require a "preponderance of the evidence", meaning it's more likely than not (just over 50%).
People often file civil suits instead of criminal charges for various reasons:
- Statute of limitations for criminal prosecution may have already expired (even if civil is still valid).
- Prosecutors might decline to file charges, due to lack of strong enough evidence. (lack of or No Mens rea)
Victims may want financial compensation, which only civil court can provide.
Control: In a civil case, the accuser has more direct control over the process, unlike a criminal case which is handled by the state or "We the people."
When public figures like Shannon or Katt Williams get involved, media attention, political power, and public perception can muddy the waters even more. Some might see legal actions as legitimate, others as politically motivated, especially when powerful interests are at stake.
"I think Shannon is being targeted by political elites—especially those on the left—who were rattled by what Katt Williams said during that interview." ~ Willy Bill
In the clip above, one of the legal pundits even uses Katt Williams' own language to drive her point home. This is a clever tactic by the left to subvert and include Shannon Sharpe as one of the people Katt was talking about. When in fact Katt Williams believe that this a shakedown. Youtuber Morio sheds light on much of what I think watch this:
"In reality, Shannon Sharpe is not the monster some are making him out to be. There is no criminal enterprise here—this situation is very different from what Katt Williams was describing in his interview. From my perspective, this appears to have been an intimate encounter that Shannon may have been beguiled into by a young woman who, in my opinion, had ulterior motives. Whether it was for a potential payday or personal gain, it seems manipulative at best.
Now, I do believe Shannon Sharpe can be an unconventional figure—what some might call a ‘strange bedfellow’—but I simply don’t see him as someone who suddenly becomes a rapist overnight. Most sexual predators have a history of accusations, not just one or two, because in those circles, word spreads fast—especially among groupies.
I say this knowing full well how polarizing these cases can be. For example, I believe R. Kelly is a political prisoner orchestrated by Jay-Z—but I digress."
Katt Williams has forced some powerful demons out of the closets of both celebrities and politicians—people with serious influence.
I have one question: If the statute of limitations hasn’t run out, why file a lawsuit instead of pressing criminal charges?
(That’s a rhetorical question.)
The answer is simple: In civil court, the standard of proof is much lower—just a 'preponderance of the evidence.' In plain English, the evidence doesn’t face the same level of scrutiny as it would in a criminal case.
The proper course of action would’ve been for her to press charges first—then file a lawsuit if warranted. This approach raises questions about intent and credibility
I would like to leave you something to bulster my position here:
Let’s not play coy — I know some of you mainstream media types and culture vultures are lurking, pulling talking points from here. And honestly? That’s fine. I want the truth out, no matter who spreads it.
But let’s be real — if you’re quoting me, reposting my insight, or building your narrative off this work, give credit where it’s due. This isn’t luck — it’s long nights, research, and real analysis.
And if you’ve got real stories — celebrity drama, political dirt, or if you’re an artist or entertainer with something to say — we’re open. Bring the truth, and we’ll help amplify it. Contact us. Let’s build something that cuts through the noise

According to a very accurate source Foxy Brown the popular female rapper in the 90’s and probably one of the 5 greatest female Emcees of all time has come out and made some shocking allegations about Jay-z. Now I must say before you read this story this has not been proven but I can’t lie I have heard stories very similiar to this about Jay in the past. Remember Foxy Brown? Well she’s made some shocking allegations about Jay Z that will blow your mind! Now, many music insiders are calling the 90′s female rapper crazy…but we’re leaving it to you to decide. Buss this… Foxy Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, has revealed that her ticket to rap success came at a price — and that it all happened while she was underage. She says the man who put her on to the rap game, Jay Z (then 27-years-old), took her virginity when she was just 15-years-old — adding Hova (who she says has a ‘horse dick’) funded her shopping trips and pampering at hair and nail salons w...
Well look at who we found! It’s “Doughboy” from “Boyz N Da Hood!” Remember him? If you’ve seen the movie, how could you forget him right? He was the lil’ dude who played the kid version of rapper, Ice Cube’s character and one of his most memorable on-screen exchanges was the one between he and his brother, “Ricky” over a girl they were both crushing on: Doughboy: “That’s my lady, homie, her name is Brandy.” Ricky: “Man, she ain’t your woman, she my woman.” Doughboy: “How can she be your woman, when she my lady?” Mind you they were only about 10 and 11 years old when they were saying those lines, LOL. Today at 36 years old, “Doughboy” has chosen a completely different path in life and we thought it was quite interesting. After “Boyz N Da Hood,” Baha Jackson went on to have a small role in “Poetic Justice.” I know what you’re thinking, none of us over here were able to remember him in that movie either, so we actually had to go back and re-watch it to see what role he ...
