T.I.andTiny Harriswill not be charged with sexual abuse in Los Angeles after a woman accused the couple earlier this year of allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting her back in 2005.
“Without the strength and weaknesses of the evidence being evaluated, the case is declined due to the expiration of the Statute of Limitations,” the document reads.
TMZwas the first to report the news of the dropped charges.
At the time, theLas Vegas Sunreported that Metro Police were also investigating T.I. and Tiny after another woman accused the couple of sexually assaulting her back in 2010. That case was subsequently dropped as the statute of limitations had expired, according to the outlet.

T.I. and Tiny have denied allegations of sexual assault in the past. Earlier this year, when a woman alleged on Instagram that the couple would force women to take drugs and have sex with them and that T.I. once held a gun to her head, a representative for the coupletold PEOPLE in a statement, “Mr. and Mrs. Harris want to be on record and more importantly want the public to know they emphatically deny in the strongest way possible the egregiously appalling allegations being made against them.”
“The Harrises have had difficulty with this woman for well over a decade,” the statement read. “[The couple is] taking this matter very seriously, and if these allegations don’t end, they will take appropriate legal action.”
Amid the allegations, production for T.I. and Tiny’s VH1 reality show,T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle,was suspended.
