“He said something like, ‘I heard he raped Katy, too,’” Lady Gaga testified.
“The false narrative Kesha created about being raped became widely accepted, damaging Dr Luke’s reputation irreparably,” his lawyers stated. “There is nothing worse than abuse and sexual assault. Dr Luke supports any woman or man who seeks to address sexual abuse in the legal system. That is not what happened here. It is also horrendous to falsely accuse someone of a heinous act.”
