WATCH: Sabrina Peterson Goes Off on TI & Tiny Over Abuse Allegations

Social media influencer Sabrina Peterson is doubling down on her allegations of physical and sexual abuse she alleges she and others suffered at the hands of rap king T.I. & his songstress wife Tameka ‘Tiny’ Harris.

In the video below, Sabrina is pretty upset accusing the hip hop power couple of leveraging their influence especially in Atlanta to avoid justice for their crimes. She also calls out Atlanta city leadership such as the mayor for turning a blind eye in favor of their admiration of the couple.

Sabrina seems to have no plans of slowing down in her pursuit of justice and vows there will be reckoning for TI & his wife proclaiming “it’s up and it’s stuck”.

TI & Tiny have already begun losing lucrative deals because of the sexual accusations and negative publicity. VH1 announced their television reality show “The Family Hustle” has been postponed indefinitely due to the allegations.

Take the Poll: Should Officers Be Financially Responsible for Misconduct?

I just came across a very interesting article on civilbeat.org that suggests that police officers should be held financially liable for their misconduct.

In the recent 4 years, under the leadership and direct orders of Trump, police brutality exposition has skyrocketed. Time and time again we watch in horror as simple encounters with law enforcement end in tragedy, even when suspects are 100% compliant with police orders. Unfortunately Black and brown people are usually the victims.

Protests and rioting have rang out — for sometimes weeks at a time — in several US cities with civilians and law enforcement clashing in the streets — just like the civil rights movement days.

To circumvent this widespread issue of corruption and misconduct, the article suggests that “all officers should be required to carry a supplemental professional liability insurance policy.”

While I do believe that financial liability for misconduct would significantly reduce corruption & misconduct, the trick is proving it. On the other hand, I do not believe that all officers are bad. I have personally encountered very professional & pleasant law enforcement officers but we cannot deny that as with any organization, there are some rotten apples in the bunch. It’s human nature.

I also believe that our police system needs to be heavily reformed, rather than defunded. Proper training & preparation would be a great start.

Sometimes it seems like Black and brown people and the police see each other as the enemy. If that’s the case, it’s definitely time to put the guns down & have meaningful conversation. A truce, per say.
