A Los Angeles jury on Thursday returned a verdict of not guilty on all four counts of r+pe and s+xual battery brought by Vanessa LeMaistre.

“I’m grateful and thankful to God that I can finally put all of this nonsense behind me,” Metro said after the ruling. “Based off of how I treat others and represent myself, never in a million years would I have thought I could be accused of such a disgusting and heinous act.”

LeMaistre, who filed the lawsuit in October 2024, claimed she met Metro (real name Leland T. Wayne) in Las Vegas in 2016, alleging he s+xually assauted her after she consumed alcohol and Xanax, and later became pregnant, leading to an abortion. Her suit also cited lyrics from Metro’s 2017 track Rap Saved Me as referencing the alleged incident.

The trial opened Tuesday, but by Thursday the jury unanimously sided with Metro. “From the beginning I have said these allegations were false and that I would not be a part of a shakedown,” he said. “She attacked who I am as a person and how I was raised. I would never do what she accused me of to anyone. I am deeply thankful to my legal team, loved ones, the jury, and everyone who stood by me.”

His attorney, Lawrence C. Hinkle II of Sanders Roberts LLP, added: “We are extremely grateful for the jury’s careful consideration. The allegations were frivolous and unequivocally false. Today’s verdict confirms what Mr. Wayne has always said—the claims were completely fabricated.”
