Nicki
Minaj's brother has been slapped with divorce papers from his wife of a
year just months after he was arrested over accusations that he
sexually assaulted a 12-year-old girl.
Jelani
Maraj, 37, was arrested last December for allegedly raping the girl in
Long Island, New York, on more than one occasion in 2015.
He
was charged with felony rapy charges including first-degree course of
sexual conduct against a child and predatory sexual assault in Nassau
County, New York, and faces 15 years to life in prison if he is
convicted.
On
August 18, Maraj's wife, Jacqueline Robinson, filed divorce papers in
Nassau County, just days before the couple would have celebrated their
one-year anniversary.
Robinson has not publicly commented on the rape charges Maraj is facing.
But
the divorce is labeled 'Uncontested Matrimonial', meaning both parties
agree to divorce and may have already reached an agreement over the
division of their assets and property. The case is still pending in New
York court.
When
Maraj was arrested in December 2015, Minaj, 33, posted his $100,000
bond. The bond was guaranteed by Minaj's two homes she owns in nearby
Baldwin, New York.
