Dr. Charles Sophy, a psychotherapist from Southern California, has filed a lawsuit against Dr. Dre for at least $10 million. Dr. Sophy claims the rapper harassed him after he worked to help with Dre's divorce from his ex-wife, Nicole Young.

Sophy says he was hired in 2018 to mediate the couple’s separation and stopped working with Dre after they reached a settlement in 2021. But in 2023, Dre allegedly began sending threatening texts, accusing Sophy of acting unfairly during the mediation. One message from Dre reportedly said, “You’re going to have to pay for that.”

Sophy claims the harassment has left him living in fear. He says Dre's messages included threats of violence and intimidation, forcing him to wear a bulletproof vest and constantly worry about his safety. He also says that people pretending to be FBI agents tried to access his home, adding to his fear.

In response, Dre's lawyer, Howard King, said Dre had filed a complaint against Sophy for mishandling the divorce and being biased. He claimed Sophy encouraged Dre's son to turn against him.

The lawsuit asks for at least $10 million in damages and a court order to stop Dre from contacting Sophy.
