Nelly’s rape accuser, who refused to testify in the criminal case against him, has now filed a civil lawsuit against the rapper claiming sexual assault and defamation, reports TMZ.
Monique Greene says she was employed as a host at the Seattle club where Nelly performed the night of Oct. 6, 2017. She says after the show she was drinking alcohol and hanging out with Nelly and his entourage, then Nelly invited her to join him at an after party.
According to the docs, Greene rode with Nelly in an SUV to his tour bus parked in a Walmart parking lot. She boarded and walked to the back of the bus, where Nelly’s bedroom was located. Greene says she sat down on the bed and Nelly started masturbating.
According to the suit, Nelly then had sex with Greene against her will, both orally and vaginally. Greene says she tried to dissuade him by saying he needed to wear a condom, but he refused and continued assaulting her. After, Greene says she was screaming she wanted off the bus. She said a member of his entourage pushed her off and Nelly tossed her a $100 bill, saying “Bye bye.”
She says Nelly taunted her from the bus as she stood in the parking lot. Greene says she called an Uber, and while waiting she also called 911. Police showed up, interviewed Greene and Nelly and arrested him for 2nd-degree rape. Greene says police took her to a medical center for treatment and to complete a rape kit.
Greene is also suing for defamation, claiming after his arrest Nelly and his team began a smear campaign, saying she was only after “money, fame and notoriety.”
Prosecutors dropped the criminal case against Nelly when Greene refused to testify. In her lawsuit, she says she felt she couldn’t “stand up against a celebrity and that the criminal system would fail her.”
Nelly, according to TMZ, has said he plans to sue Greene to restore his reputation.
