It's been a tough 2016 for Taylor Swift on the personal
front as the singing diva not only had two high profile breakups, but also had
to struggle due to the sexual assault lawsuit against a former Denver radio
host. And, it appears the holiday season is bringing no cheers for her as she
now fears for her life.
A TMZ report claims that the songstress' legal team is
fighting a case to prevent the leak of the transcripts from the sexual assault
case, which they claim contains sensitive information about the bad Blood
singer. In a freshly filed petition, the legal team has asked the court to redact
the portions of the July hearing of Swift's sexual assault case against David
Mueller, where her 'security details' and 'specific threat made against her'
have been mentioned.
"The same people who have threatened Ms. Swift in the
past, as well as copy cats, may be emboldened by public attention," the
27-year-old pop star's attorney told the website claiming that the details may
jeopardise the singer's life.
The singer previously accused the radio DJ of grabbing her
from behind during a photo session backstage following her performance at the
Pepsi Center in 2013. "Right as the moment came for us to pose for the
photo, he took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my a** cheek
and no matter how much I scooted over it was still there," Swift said in
her court videotape deposition claiming that the groping incident was not an
accident.
"I remember being frantic, distressed, feeling violated
in a way I had never experienced before," Swift said in the deposition.
"A meet-and-greet is supposed to be a situation where you're thanking
people for coming, you're supposed to be welcoming people into your home, which
is the arena for that day, and for someone to violate that hospitality in that
way, I was completely stunned."Mueller, however, defended himself from the allegations on
iHeart's Mojo In The Morning. "I've never had my day in court. I've never
been inappropriate with a woman in my life,' he said. 'I want my reputation
back," he said and claimed his innocence. "I was just trying to get
my right hand around Taylor. I've got my hand closed and my palm down and I
reach behind, toward Taylor. Our hands touched and our arms crossed. My hand
was never under her skirt. I never grabbed her," he said denying the
allegations that he grabbed Swift's bare butt.
