The source |Dr. Dre faces massive  million harassment lawsuit, accusing Mogul of ‘systematic and malicious’ threats

Another day, another lawsuit in the entertainment world. There needs to be a show dedicated to keeping up. Anyway, Dr. Dre is facing a $10 million lawsuit from his former psychotherapist, Dr. Charles Sophy, who claims the music producer subjected him to intimidation, threats and homophobic rhetoric.

We previously reported the lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleging that Dre, whose real name is Andre Young, is involved in a “systematic and malicious” campaign against Dr. Sophy, characterized by a series of threatening texts and actions that started in February 2023. Dr. Sophy claims Dre’s harassment stems from unresolved frustrations related to the mediation Sophy oversaw during Dre’s 2021 divorce from Nicole Young.

According to the complaint, Dre sent Sophy several “overtly threatening” messages, accusing him of an undisclosed violation and demanding that he “pay for” the perceived misconduct. Dre also allegedly pressured Sophy to reveal confidential information from a separate therapy session with another client, which Sophy refused. As the harassment escalated, Dr. Sophy claims that Dre even sent men posing as FBI agents to his home, leaving him in a state of constant fear.

“Dr. Sophy lives in constant fear. He wears a bulletproof vest every time he steps foot outside, is afraid to leave his home and is constantly looking over his shoulder,” the lawsuit reads. “No one should have to live in constant fear. But Dr. Sophy did – ironically for no other reason than that he was trying to help Young resolve the conflict in his own family.”

Furthermore, Dre’s legal team denies these allegations and offers their own counterarguments. Howard King, Dre’s attorney, claims that Dre filed a “confidential complaint” against Sophy with the Osteopathic Medical Board of California for “neglect of duty and incredible incompetence.” King claims Sophy tried to force Dre’s children to turn against him during the divorce and encouraged one child to make false accusations to the press in order to reach a financial settlement.

Get this, King stated, “That complaint seeks the revocation of Dr. Sophy’s license to provide mental health services… He was fired when it was revealed that he encouraged one of their children to take sides against Mr. Young.” King added that Sophy has refused to cooperate with the Medical Board’s investigation into these claims.

Dr. In his lawsuit, Sophy denies Dre’s allegations and insists he tried to avoid legal action in hopes of resolving the matter. “There is no truth behind these baseless and far-fetched allegations,” the lawsuit states. “Dr. Sophy tried to let go of the threats… However, Young wouldn’t let go.’

What will you think: did Dr. Sophy a business or not?
