T.I. is making sure no stone is left unturned in the sexual abuse allegations he and his wife Tiny have been accused of this week.

The rapper went to Instagram today (Jan. 29), to further discuss the allegations, and address why it has taken so long for him to speak up and defend himself.

“It’s been extremely difficult for me to remain quiet in light of all the things that have transpired, and all the egregious allegations being tossed around about me and my wife,” he said. “But there’s a reason for that, and I don’t mind sharing it. You see, if a person does not have any right to criminally or civilly have you in court, the best thing they can do is get you for defamation, Drag you in court, make you pay their legal bills.”

He continued to address what he says are baseless claims against himself and his family.

“These are not stories of actual events, and I have proof of that,” he said. I have proof of people who have gone on live  and later say, ‘I just wanted some clout. I can’t believe they actually posted that shit. I just wanted some clout.’ So that’s what we’re dealing with. How are you going to be a victim and an attacker at the same time?”

Tip and Tiny have been been doing damage control today, following a joint statement released on the serious allegations of sexual abuse as accused by a woman named Sabrina Peterson. She has been sharing screenshots from alleged victims which claim that the married couple made women take drugs before entering their home and engage in sexual acts.

According to reports, T.I. and Tiny have allegedly had issues with Peterson for over a decade, resulting in her most recent allegation. Tiny also addressed allegations that the Atlanta artist put a gun to her head.

“Stop harassing my family,” she said. “You Strange. Everybody know you been special (face slicing seminar lady). Please get help. But LEAVE US ALONE!!”

The family will now be looking to press charges against Peterson. There has been no word as of right now.
