Perhaps I need correcting, so someone please correct me, re: Kesha.

In 2011 under oath and deposition she said he didn’t rape her, drug her or do anything, others varified this in court. Sony also said they are happy for her to work with a differant producer. Dr. Luke has said he’s happy not to produce… There is no evidence of anything other than the allegation, that came after it was clear she was going to be held to the contract.

In the US a contract IS made null and void if there is a guilty verdict in such cases, yet there no is no attempt to seek prosecution. Kesha has stated to have medical evidance of the crime, but wont hand it over.

Keshas Lawyers posted that Dr. Luke had raped Lady Gaga and Lady Gaga denied this.

I don’t think that she should HAVE to seek prosecution and I believe ALL contracts should have a release clause (albeit with a fine or something?) and if she say’s it happened my instinct is to believe her.

But to swear it never happened and then bring it up without any intent to act on the accusation to get out of a contract?

At the very least this is using a horrific thing that has happened to her as a weapon for financial gain.Sony just care about their albums and the money, Dr.Luke doesn’t have to be any part of it.

Given all that, no conviction, Kesha’s deposition that clears Dr. Luke and Sony’s willingness to supply another producer… why is everyone so shocked and horrified that a Judge sitting over a contract case looking at a standard well negotiated contract would decided to uphold the contract?

If there is evidence, hand it over, he SHOULD face prosecution.
