Charges Against Star Dropped, DJ Issues Warning
Its been nearly three months since Star was given the boot from NYC radio station Power 105 for threatening rival Hot 97 personality DJ Envys daughter on air.
Star was arrested shortly after the on air incident, which included remarks about him doing an R. Kelly on the childs face. A fire storm of controversy erupted, but area prosecutors announced yesterday that they will not file charges against Star.
According to a New York Times article, District Attorney spokeswoman Barbara Thompson said the charges were dropped because it spares the 4-year-old victim from any further attention or exposure.
As an added stipulation, Star must perform three days of community service and avoid all contact with DJ Envy and his family, via an order of protection.
Star, who has been relatively silent since his departure from Power, issued a statement following the announcement.
This was the biggest story in regards to freedom of speech in quite some time, the controversial personality said of the decision.
On the heels of the dismissal, Star also issued a warning to others working for mass media outlets.
If youre in the media youd better know what happened to me, he cautioned, or else youll just be another sheep sitting around, and all of a sudden one day youll be told that you dont represent the demands of a certain community and then youre out of a job.
