Benzino went on a Twitter rant yesterday (April 21st) where he threatened legal action against Shauna Brooks, the transgender actress who claimed that they were dating. He shared screenshots of alleged DM exchanges with Brooks on Twitter where he “warned” her to stop engaging with the online narrative about him.
He wrote, “I don't know what's your motivation of why u doing this but I'll go to jail for the rest of my life over this and idgag about the lgbtq, police or anyone else, I never even met u in person but I tell what you keep playing wit me, I'm going to jail for the rest of my life.”
He continued, “IM TELL, THREATENING YOU AND EVERYTHING ELSE, YOU KEEP LYING ON ME I AM GONNA HUNT YOU DOWN AND IM GOING TO JAIL PERIOD!!! THIS INTERNET IS GONNA MAKE U LOSE UR F*CKING LIFE. AND 50 CENT IS A F*CKING COWARD, HE AINT GOING NOWHERE WITHOUT POLICE AND HE AINT GONNA SAVE U! GO HOLLA AT HIM OR YOUNG BUCK, THEM N***A ARE IN TO YOU.”
He also shared screenshots from comments he left under her posts where he reiterated similar comments. He said, “This person has crossed a dangerous line and I’ve already accepted that at 56 years old I will die now or go to jail for the rest of my over my name, reputation and legacy. This weirdo mf is playing with y’all, not me. He/she still haven’t said that we never met in person.”
After a few more tweets, Brooks responded with her own screenshots from a text message exchange that appears to include explicit images.
