Smokey Davidson’s defamation claims dismissed
In a legal showdown, a judge has thrown out Smokey Robinson's defamation case against his former employees who leveled sexual assault accusations against him. The court found the evidence lacking in demonstrating the 'actual malice' needed for a defamation claim. Though the judge highlighted discrepancies in Robinson's statements, the legal threshold for defamation wasn't reached.
