“This is an ill-advised attempt by Russell to use the legal system to access funds he is in no way entitled to, and which his own legal team confirms Russell did not pay for.”
Russell Simmons currently has active sexual assault and rape allegations made by more than 20 women. Following these allegations, Simmons stepped down from his position as co-founder at Def Jam Recordings. Reportedly, Simmons moved to Bali as there is no extradition treaty to the U.S. A documentary titled On The Record was released last year on his sexual assault towards record producer Drew Dixon.
