Following a civil trial that sparked a flurry of viral moments that captivated internet audiences, a jury on Tuesday cleared rapper Cardi B of any legal liability after she was accused of assaulting a security guard in 2018.
The jury found that the security guard did not prove the elements of assault, negligence or emotional distress. Cardi B, wearing a black outfit with white dots and a red bow, made a sign of the cross after the jury read its conclusions.
"I'm not even playing around. Even if I'm at my death bed, I swear to God, I will say it at my death bed β I did not touch that woman," Cardi told reporters outside of court after the verdict was read.
