Justin Bieber will NOT be prosecuted for two high-profile incidents earlier this year, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office has reportedly decided.
As Gossip Cop reported in March, the teen superstar was accused of spitting on his neighbor and making a criminal threat against the resident when the unidentified male went on to Bieber’s property to chastise him for allegedly speeding in their gated community.
The D.A. has reportedly determined that there wasn’t enough evidence to pursue the case, with the specifics amounting to just Bieber’s word versus that of the complainant.
The neighbor is said to have actually saved Bieber’s supposed spit, however, and reported to the police that the performer threatened, “I will beat the sh*t out of you and I will f*cking kill you.”
But while the D.A.’s office says the singer’s response was “disproportionate and immature,” “since the neighbor had entered the property without invitation, Bieber’s actions did not rise to the level of a criminal threat.”
In the second case, Bieber was under investigation for reckless driving after former NFL player Keyshawn Johnson accused him of speeding through their neighborhood in his Ferarri in May.
But the D.A. has concluded via surveillance footage that Bieber wasn’t actually driving the vehicle at the time, but riding his motorcycle behind the car in question, reports TMZ.
Furthermore, Bieber’s pal Tyler the Creator has said he was the one behind the wheel.
Both cases were rejected for prosecution, and are now officially closed.
