Ray J Seeks Dismissal, Expands RICO Claims Against Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner

The new filing asks a judge to dismiss their defamation case, signaling a shift from reputational claims to contested racketeering allegations.

Overview

  • In court papers filed this week, Ray J doubles down on accusations that Kardashian and Jenner operated a racketeering enterprise.
  • He alleges they conspired with Vivid Entertainment to defraud the public by using a "fake" defamation lawsuit as part of a broader scheme.
  • The filing claims the pair committed credit card fraud by running up $850,000 in charges against him and his family.
  • Ray J says a 2023 settlement paid him $6 million and barred further references to the sex tape, which he alleges they violated while also trying to "extort" him after a 2024 podcast.
  • He cites a ChatGPT consultation that reinforced his RICO view and argues their alleged conduct is worse than accusations faced by Sean "Diddy" Combs, while the October defamation suit against him remains pending with no rulings reported.
