Rapper Fat Joe is facing a $20 million lawsuit for allegedly engaging in sexual abuse against minors, among other accusations.The lawsuit was filed on Thursday by his former hype man, T.A. Dixon, in the Southern District of New York. The suit accuses Fat Joe, whose real name is Joseph Antonio Cartagena, of a "sustained campaign of exploitation."The rapper "systematically engaged in coercive labor exploitation, financial fraud, sexual manipulation, violent intimidation, and psychological coercion," Dixon claimed in the 157-page lawsuit, obtained by Fox News Digital.The lawsuit added that it was "all intended to enrich" Fat Joe and his associates "while deliberately suppressing, silencing, and erasing [Dixons] substantial creative, artistic, and commercial contributions, which were foundational to Defendant Cartagena's professional success and personal brand."TYLER PERRY SUED FOR $260M BY ACTOR CLAIMING SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND ASSAULTFat Joe's lawyer told Fox News Digital, "The lawsuit filed by Tyrone Blackburn and Terrance Dixon is a blatant act of retaliation a desperate attempt to deflect attention from the civil suit we filed first, which exposed their coordinated scheme to extort Mr. Cartagena through lies, threats, and manufactured allegations."It added, "Law enforcement is aware of the extortionate demand at the heart of this scheme. The allegations against Mr. Cartagena are complete fabrications lies intended to damage his reputation and force a settlement through public pressure. Mr. Cartagena will not be intimidated. We have taken legal action to expose this fraudulent campaign and hold everyone involved accountable."Blackburn, Dixon's attorney, told Fox News Digital, "Fat Joe is Sean Combs minus the Tusi [a drug also known as "pink cocaine"].It is clear he has learned nothing from his 2013 federal conviction," referring to the rapper's previous conviction on tax evasion charges.Fat Joes alleged exploitation extended "beyond financial fraud," Dixon's lawsuit claimed, adding he was allegedly forced into "humiliating situations, including sex acts performed under duress and surveillance, accompanied by threats" that he would be left in foreign countries if he did not comply.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING?

Dixon said Minor Doe 1 was 16 years old.He claimed that Fat Joe began having sex with a second minor when she was 15 years old after a concert overseas and paid for her to get a Brazilian butt lift.Fat Joe also allegedly had sex with a third minor girl who met the rapper before she turned 16. He was "in love" with the third minor and "even contemplated leaving his wife" for her, the lawsuit claimed."In a recorded conversation, Minor Doe 3 and her 15-year-old cousin describe in detail to Plaintiff how inappropriate it was for Defendant, who was in his late 30s at the time, to be fawning over children," the document alleged.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERDixon also worked as a "lyricist, background vocalist, security team member, and creative collaborator" during his time with the rapper, the lawsuit said, claiming he was "systematically excluded" from getting "fair compensation, proper attribution, and the substantial royalties and profits generated from his creative labor. Instead, Plaintiff was consistently underpaid, denied songwriting credits, and deliberately concealed from royalties and backend compensation."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPFat Joe sued Dixon earlier this year for allegedly defaming him on social media after Dixon claimed the rapper flew a 16-year-old across state lines for sex, according to Variety.

The New York Times editorial board pointed the finger at President Donald Trump on Friday following another incident of deadly political violence.In a new editorial, the board said Trump is the chief individual to blame for America sliding into an era marked by political violence."Although Mr. Trump has been a personal victim of this violence, he also deserves particular responsibility for our angry culture," the board declared.MINNESOTA LAWMAKER HAPPENED TO BE ON VACATION WHEN MASKED SUSPECT KNOCKED ON DOORThe headline read, "The Nation Encourages Political Violence by Allowing It to Seem Normal."The Times published the piece days after the deadly shootings that claimed the lives of Minnesota state legislator Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, and resulted in the wounding of state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, last weekend.The suspect, 57-year-old Vance Boelter, was arrested on Sunday following a two-day manhunt in Minnesota after he allegedly posed as a police officer and killed the Hortmans. The previous day, he carried out a related attack against Hoffman and his wife.Boelter was found with a cache of weapons, including at least three AK-47 assault rifles and a 9mm handgun, along with a manifesto that listed 70 names and addresses, some of which belonged to other public officials.The Friday editorial argued that this latest politically motivated attack represents a "surge in political violence during the Trump years" that has imperiled not only American lives but also our countrys collective memory."SUSPECTED MINNESOTA LAWMAKER ASSASSIN VANCE BOELTER CAPTUREDThe board recounted several high-profile instances of political violence that have occurred in America in the last decade, listing the shooting of Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., in 2017, the Jan. 6 Capitol Riot, the attack on former House Speaker Nancy Pelosis, D-Calif., husband, and the two assassination attempts on Trump, as part of the "grim catalog of political violence in recent years."It declared that "Fear has become a fact of life for politicians," elsewhere noting that "Democrats and Republicans alike have been the victims" of attacks driven by "demonizing comments" that people "on both the firth and the left engage in."The board then blamed Trump for this, justifying the point in stating, "He uses threatening language in ways that no other modern president has.

A South Carolina beachgoer is lucky to be alive after walking away with serious injuries from a suspected shark attack earlier this week.The incident reportedly occurred off the coast of the south end of Hilton Head Island on Tuesday, a Hilton Head Island Fire Rescue official confirmed to Fox News Digital."The incident involved a patient with a leg injury consistent with lacerations typically associated with a shark bite," the department said in a statement.BEACHES WITH MOST SHARK ATTACKS AS AMERICANS PAY TRIBUTE TO 'JAWS' AND ACTIVIST WEIGHS INLocal rescue crews were dispatched to beach marker 24 in Sea Pines Beach at approximately 12:07 p.m. regarding reports of a medical emergency. Firefighters and lifeguards subsequently treated the victim at the scene before transporting her to Hilton Head Island Airport, where she was then airlifted to a local facility in Savannah for further medical treatment.Local officials declined Fox News Digitals request for information regarding the victims identity and condition, citing privacy regulations.POPULAR SPRING BREAK ACTIVITY LANDS AMERICAN TOURIST IN HOSPITAL: 'FELT LIKE I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT'The attack comes just days after a 9-year-old girl was bitten by a shark on Floridas Gulf Coast, according to Fox 13.Leah Lendel was enjoying a snorkeling trip with her family in Boca Grande on June 11 when a shark bit her hand, the outlet reported.The injuries left her hand "hanging by a little piece of skin," a witness reportedly said.ALLIGATOR INJURES GIRL SWIMMING IN POPULAR SUMMER STATE PARK DESTINATIONLendel was pulled from the water by a nearby construction crew and airlifted to Tampa General Hospital, where she underwent surgery involving artery grafts, bone reconstruction and nerve repair."I didn't see anything," Lendel said at a news conference Thursday. "I was just snorkeling and I went up to breathe, then something hard bit me and it tried to take me away. Then I pick up my hand and it's all in blood. Then, I started screaming with my mom. And then, my dad was with me. He picked me up, then we ran to the road.Doctors were able to save Lendels hand, a feat they partially credit to how "clean" the bite was."The shark's teeth are so sharp that the cut through the wrist is clean and not jagged, and it doesn't ruin all the tissue," Dr. Alfred Hess said.Lendel anticipates she will return to the water once she has made a full recovery."She's done a fantastic job, I can already tell you," Dr. Joshua Linnell said. "I just keep looking over at those fingers because we worked hard on that."Lendel's family did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Just one day after Mayor Paul Young of Memphis touted declining crime in the city, a man was arrested for allegedly stalking and attempting to kidnap him.Trenton Abston, 25, was arrested Wednesday and charged with attempted kidnapping, stalking and aggravated criminal trespass against Young, according to the Memphis Police Department (MPD).Police said in an announcement on Facebook that public and private security camera footage showed Abston scaling the wall to the mayor's neighborhood and walking to Young's home.

As President Donald Trump weighs joining Israel's war to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities, the world's chief nuclear official tells Fox News that he sees no evidence Iran's leaders are racing to build a nuclear bomb.International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi said, "We have confirmed that Iran does have, even now, enough material for several warheads."But this should not be equated with a nuclear weapon," Grossi continued, adding, "We do not have at this point, if you ask me, at this time, any tangible proof that there is a program, or a plan, to fabricate, to manufacture a nuclear weapon."IAEA CHIEF CALLS ISRAELI PRESIDENT, REPORTEDLY SAYS IRAN NUCLEAR FACILITY WAS SEVERELY DAMAGEDInspectors from Grossi's agency, which is the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, are tasked with monitoring Iran's nuclear activities. The IAEA has not been able to carry out inspections since Israel began attacking sites earlier this month but has been making extensive use of satellite imagery.When asked by Fox News whether Iran's nuclear program had been set back dramatically by Israel's attacks to date, Grossi said, "No, I wouldn't say so."I think there have been a number of important military attacks and impacts," he said. "But it is very clear, and everybody agrees on this, that not everything has been taken out."He also argued that military action alone would not be enough to undo what Iran has learned in several decades of nuclear research."One thing is the physical damage," Grossi said. "But then there is the knowledge factor, and the fact that it is very difficult to roll back the knowledge that a country has acquired."Iran has blamed Israel for the killings of multiple Iranian nuclear scientists over many years, including several in recent days. The IAEA censured Iran on June 12, just hours before Israel launched its wave of attacks, for failing to comply with commitments meant to prevent it from developing a nuclear weapon.EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT AYATOLLAH ALI KHAMENEI, SUPREME LEADER OF IRANHowever, despite the IAEA reprimand, and the current fighting, Grossi insists a diplomatic solution remains a viable option."I believe that there is a way to take this danger -- or this concern -- out of the table in a negotiated way."I've been in conversations, very good conversations, with [President Trump's envoy] Steve Witkoff and with the Iranians as well," Grossi said."I believe there are ways in which we can make sure that Iran does not get a nuclear weapon. I think this is ultimately what Israel wants and what the United States has declared."We are the international corps of inspectors, and we know what you would need to check in order to prevent this from happening."We believe that the opportunity should be seized, as President Trump said, but of course the space for that is narrowing."
