The cops have been under pressure from the media to release information surrounding Nicki Minaj’s boyfriend Zoo Petty’s rape case.
Minaj has tried to frame it like Petty just was a victim of a mom who didn’t want him dating her daughter, but the details on the case and why he was convicted paint a much different story.
The Blast finally got their hands on what really happened.
The female victim told police that on September 16, 1994 in Queens, NY, she was walking down the street when Petty came up behind her and “placed a hard circular object” against her back and “made a clicking sound.” The victim believed Petty had a handgun against her body, and he instructed her to “keep walking.”
The two walked to an address down the street, and she claims Petty forced her upstairs into his bedroom by pushing her from behind with what she believed to be a handgun.
Once inside Petty’s room, the victim claimed he “laid his weight on top … pinched her sides and squeezed her neck causing her to sustain bruises and pain.” She then claimed Petty “forced his penis” into her vagina.
The victim claims she tried to escape, but Petty “brandished a knife” and held it against her stomach, telling her “she could not leave.” The victim claims she eventually struck Petty and escaped.
Petty was charged with 5 crimes, rape in the 1st degree, sexual abuse in the 1st degree, unlawful imprisonment in the 2nd degree, assault in the 2nd degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the 4th degree.
He later pled down and was convicted of attempted rape in the 1st degree, and served 4 years in prison. Petty is still a registered sex offender, and must regularly check in for updated location information and photos as a warning to the public.
Petty initially lied to the police about even knowing or seeing the girl, before coming clean.
Petty also spent 7 years in jail for shooting a man to death. Minaj has lashed out at TMZ and Jesse Palmer for reporting on these details.
