Too Short Denies Pedo Charges

Last week Oakland rapper Too Short got arrested after getting into a fight with bouncers at a club in Boise, Idaho allegedly after he tried to take a few underage girls backstage to his dressing room. Too Short says it's not true.

In a statement to the press Short Dog said,
"The accusations against me regarding my arrest in Idaho on July 15th, were untrue and exaggerated. Normally I would ignore rumors, but because of the nature of the story that's being spread I had to say something.

"Due to my work with young people in Oakland I am extremely outraged at the way I am being portrayed. The incident that night was completely taken out of context and I have not and never will take advantage of any woman that is under age. Never that!

"These days people believe everything that they see on TV and these blogs. I have been dedicated to youth organizations and wish to continue to support them and I do not want my community and especially young people that look up to me to think that this is the type of thing that I would do."
