Kevin Hart‘s former friend JT has been cleared of any wrongdoing over the infamous sex tape scandal.
JT was accused of conspiring to extort the comedian who slept with a woman in a hotel room while his wife was at home pregnant. The sex tape was leaked online.
Kevin addressed the dismissal of the charges on social media.
“It’s no secret that my life has had its share of ups and downs. It definitely has. Not proud of the downs at all, but of course that’s life — things happen. It’s our job to adjust when they do. One of those things that I had to adjust from was the situation that involved a friend–Johnathan “JT” Jackson–when he was charged in the case. And JT Jackson has recently been found not guilty and those charges have been dropped against him.”
Kevin continued:
“I can finally speak on what I once couldn’t–I couldn’t do it ’cause of the legal process. It kind of put a fork in the road between he and I and that relationship was lost. But I’m glad that now not only can I finally speak on it, but I can say I’m happy that that chapter in my life is over. I’m happy that we’re able to put a period on that sentence, and I’m excited to get back to life as we once knew. I wanna get back to life as I once knew it and put that behind me and move on. This message is about moving on. It’s over… it’s over, and I’m happy that it’s over. Live, love, and laugh — it’s that simple.”
