American Hip Hop act, Mystikal was indicted by a Caddo Parish grand jury on Tuesday with one count of first-degree rape, and one count of second-degree kidnapping after being connected to a 2016 assault in a Shreveport casino.
A DNA evidence in August was said to have linked him to the rape case, soon after an arrest warrant was issued for the New Orleans rapper nearly 14 years after his previous rape conviction.
According to KSLA News, the 46-year-old rapper, born Michael Lawrence Tyler, who was among one of three people allegedly involved in the assault was arrested and charged last month after he turned himself in to the authorities. His bond is set at $3 million.
