Charlamagne plead guilty to sexual assault with a 15-year old in 2001

When Charlamagne (real name: Lenard Larry McKelvey) the radio host from Hot 97, was 22 years old (NOT 20 as he previously stated), served drinks to two 15 year olds, Malika and Jessica Reid and had sex with one of the 15 years olds, Jessica Reid, back in 2001. There was a criminal complaint filed in the state of South Carolina.

The 32 year old woman, does not want any money, she just wants people to know the specifics of the case that ended in a plea deal.

From Billboard:
In an interview with The Blast, Reid’s mother, Joslyn, admits she told her teenage daughter to stop cooperating with the prosecution saying she wanted to “protect her daughter from suffering.” Reid says her lack of cooperation meant attorneys couldn’t convict McKelvey on the charge he was arrested for, criminal sexual conduct with a minor. Instead, he pleaded guilty to contributing to the delinquency of a minor, for which the then-22-year-old McKelvey received three years probation.

Details of the alleged assault, which happened in South Carolina, are outlined by Billboard:

According to a 2001 police report from the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office, Reid and a friend claimed to have been picked up and brought to a short-stay Naval housing facility and given a liquid to drink that tasted like soda. That was the last thing Reid’s friend said she remembered before waking up with a man trying to kiss her. She claimed to have forced the man away and went to find Reid, who was in the room across from where she was, naked and crying, stating she had been raped. The girls were brought to a local hospital, where staff corroborated that a sexual assault had occurred and took a statement implicating McKelvey as the assailant.

McKelvey has discussed the alleged assault before. In 2013, McKelvey spoke with DJ Akademics about the incident, saying he was falsely accused of rape.

McKelvey tells Akademiks that Reid (whom he doesn’t refer to by name in the video) attended a party he threw for his cousin, who had just graduated high school.

“She got drunk, high, whatever, whatever,” McKelvey said. “Something happened in the room with a couple of my dudes.”

He says he wasn’t at the party at the time of the assault but found out afterward from his friends that Reid was “bugging out.” McKelvey claims police pinned the rape charges on him after he offered to take responsibility for what happened at the party, and that the charges were reduced when his DNA didn’t match what had been collected from Reid.
