Ray J is doubling down on claims that his ex-partner, Kim Kardashian, and her mother, Kris Jenner, are engaged in extortion and fraud.
The singer even claims that the mother-daughter duo’s behavior is more serious than the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs.
In new legal filings, Ray has accused Kardashian and Jenner of colluding with Vivid Entertainment in a “criminal enterprise” to deceive the public through what he calls a faux defamation lawsuit. TMZ.
Ray claims the pair have repeatedly violated the RICO law and insists he has “no doubt” their actions amount to racketeering.
Ray added that they committed credit card fraud, involving an $850,000 account in his and his family’s names.
He has also asked a judge to dismiss the Kardashians’ defamation lawsuit, claiming they used the lawsuit to punish and silence him.
The filings mark the latest twist in a dispute that reignited in October, when Kardashian and Jenner sued Ray for defamation after he claimed he was cooperating with federal authorities on a RICO case against them.
Ray filed a counterclaim a month later, claiming they were behind the release of his controversial 2007 tape with Kardashian.
He claims the tape was consensually filmed and released in the mid-2000s with signed agreements, and says subsequent allegations, including claims of sexual assault, revenge pornography and extortion, were false.
Ray further claims that he was also defrauded into signing a $6 million settlement, which the family breached almost immediately.
