#Tekashi 6ix9ine Sued by Victims of 2018 Gunpoint Robbery
“#Tekashi 6ix9ine Sued by Victims of 2018 Gunpoint Robbery”
Wonzer and Dozier are suing 6ix9ine for two counts of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), assault, battery, false imprisonment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Although RICO is typically used by prosecutors in criminal cases, the statute “contains a civil component that allows it to be used to turn ordinary business disputes that would be filed in state courts into federal cases,” according to The New York Times. Proof of a RICO violation results in mandatory “treble damages,” or triple the financial damages, plus attorney’s fees. An exact amount of desired damages was not specified in the lawsuit, but the plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and punitive damages from the court.
Pitchfork has reached out to legal representatives for Seketha Wonzer, Kevin Dozier, and 6ix9ine for comment and more information.
