Dr. Dre's Former Counselor Files Restraining Order Against Him

Dr. Dre is currently embroiled in a legal battle with Dr. Charles Sophy. The latter served as Dre's divorce counselor when the legendary producer was splitting from his wife. The divorce was finalized years ago, but Dr. Sophy has come forth with a number of harrowing allegations against Dre. He alleges that he was subjected to threats via text message, and that Dre used "homophobic rhetoric" against him. Due to these claims, Dr. Sophy filed a restraining order against him. TMZ confirmed the order on October 11. Dr. Sophy filed a temporary restraining order against Dr. Dre on the basis of the allegations made against him. For the time being, the producer can not get within a 100 yard distance of Dr. Sophy or his son. The divorce counselor also requested that Dre stop reaching out to him, whether it be via text, phone call, or email. These requests make sense, given the allegations that he has leveled at Dre. Sophy alleged that Dr. Dre reached out to him years after the aforementioned split was finalized, and began taunting him on a regular basis.

(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images for Coachella) Dr. Sophy is seeking $10 million in damages. It's worth noting, however, that Dr. Dre has responded to the counselor's allegations. He accused Dr. Sophy of malicious intent in his handling of the divorce, and for malpractice, as he went from being Dre's divorce counselor to primary therapist. Furthermore, the legendary producer claimed that Sophy drove a wedge between him and his son. In a statement sent to TMZ, Dr. Dre alleged that Sophy tried to manipulate his son into spreading "false allegations" about the domestic abuse allegations leveled at him by his ex-wife. Dr. Sophy may have filed a lawsuit, but Dr. Dre has filed a complaint with the Osteopathic Medical Board of California. The latter wants to see Sophy's medical license get revoked. The counselor maintains that he was the victim of civil harassment and threat of violence based on sexual orientation. He also wants a trial, according to Rolling Stone. The artist, in the meantime, is gearing up for the release of Missionary, his long-anticipated collab album with Snoop Dogg. The legal battle is obviously ongoing, and is set to take some important turns over the next few months. [via]

Is The Alleged Murderer Of Doe B Out Of Jail?

The sad fact is that Doe B was one of the most promising rappers. He was signed by T.I. He was from Alabama. And he had a very loyal following. He was killed in December of 2013. After he was killed there was a tremendous amount of drama. His murder was tragic to say the least. Anyway, AllHipHop has unverified sources with AllHipHop have told us that Doe B’s accused murderer is out. The police sought to put him away for life, but simply didn’t have the evidence to do it. Remember, Doe B was shot in an infamous Alabama nightclub, known to be unsafe by locals. Some have made it clear that Doe was set up and somebody (aka “security”) let the killer in – allegedly. Anywaym lets not forget Kimberlie Johnson, who was also killed on that fateful night. There were six others that were injured by the fracas. Sadly, these folks may never see justice. On the music side, our sources are absolutely positive that there will be more Doe B music to come. So, look out for that. RIP DOE B.
