Dr. Dre Sued for $10 Million by Divorce Psychotherapist Alleging ‘Unbearable Harassment’

A psychiatrist says Dr. Dre subjected him to "unbearable harassment." The rapper's lawyer says the doctor showed "incredible incompetence."

A psychotherapist in Southern California is suing Dr. Dre for at least $10 million with allegations the rapper and business mogul subjected him to a “systematic and malicious” barrage of “unbearable harassment” that left him wearing a bulletproof vest and fearing for his life. Sophy says he refused and “again tried to stay calm and hope that Young’s threats, harassment and intimidation would stop.” On Aug. 4, 2023, Dre sent another “disturbing and chilling text message” in which he allegedly threatened, “Don’t worry I haven’t forgotten about you,” the lawsuit states. The doctor claims that in February 2023, “immediately after the initial texts were sent,” he received a strange call from a security guard at his gated community saying individuals claiming to be FBI agents were “requesting to be led into Dr. Sophy’s residence to ‘talk’ to him.” The doctor says he believes the people were impersonating agents to gain access to his residence and “send the unmistakable message” that Sophy wasn’t safe even in “the sanctity of his home.”
