Another piece to the puzzle has unravelled in the civil lawsuit between Chris Brown and Frank Ocean’s cousin.
In legal documents obtained by TMZ, Sha’Keir Duarte confesses to using "reasonable and necessary" force to allegedly protect himself and Ocean against one of Brown's folks, called Hood. The incident erupted over a parking space outside the Westlake Studio in West Hollywood in January (13).
As previously reported, Duarte is suing Brown for $3 million dollars, claiming he is responsible for the beating he took from a member of the Grammy winner’s security team.
Brown, who is currently serving 90 days of court ordered rehab for anger management, also filed a countersuit, citing Duarte of provoking the fight.
You may remember the infamous brawl that took place between Frank Ocean and Chris Brown’s crew back in 2013. Well, an update has surfaced regarding the incident.
It turns out that Ocean’s cousin, Sha’keir Duarte, has admitted to using force during the altercation. According to reports, Duarte stated under oath that he punched one of Brown’s bodyguards during the brawl.
This admission came about during a deposition for a lawsuit filed by Duarte against Brown over injuries sustained during the fight. It is unclear how this admission will impact the ongoing legal battle between Duarte and Brown, but it certainly sheds new light on what really happened that fateful night.
The Infamous Brawl between Frank Ocean and Chris Brown’s Crew

The incident caused quite a stir in the music industry and led to several lawsuits filed by both parties against each other. While it’s unclear who started the fight or who was ultimately responsible for causing bodily harm, it serves as a reminder that violence is never an acceptable way to resolve conflicts.
