Jiggy's response to Jovi Pena's rape accusations

Till now, Jiggy remained silent on the subject. He recently revealed himself and published a thorough Twitter thread. He claimed that he decided to keep quiet for a number of reasons, including legal counsel, his want to hear Pena's story of that night in full and his reluctance to argue with her.

The procedure of clearing his name took longer than he had anticipated, Jiggy said, adding that he wished they had addressed this through the police rather than using social media. 

What did Jovi Pena say?

Pena, a TikToker and Instagram model, said in January that Jiggy had sexually assaulted her during Cenat's party. Pena accused Cenat of refusing to assist and attempting to defend his friend on social media after making the first accusation public. Cenat disputed this and stated that he had declined to discuss anything about the issue on the advice of his legal counsel.

Jiggy originally didn't answer the charge. On April 24, he posted a video of the alleged event on Twitter, but it was later taken down for breaking the platform's terms of service. He also refuted the charges.
