Alleged Foxy Brown attacker let out of jail

Roshawn Anthony, accused of attacking Foxy Brown, has been released after Brown failed to appear in court to testify, with a further hearing set for 9 August.

The woman who allegedly attacked rapper Foxy Brown on 23 Jun has been released from jail after Brown, real name Inga Marchand, failed to show up in court to testify against her.

As previously reported, there is some confusion as to what exactly happened in the fracas that led to the arrest of Roshawn Anthony. Reports, initially seemingly confirmed by Marchand, suggested Anthony was one of four women who staged an unprovoked attack on the rapper, pulling out her hair weave and hearing aid, and then stealing her bag and $500. But shortly after confirming the incident had taken place, Marchand then went into denial, and started denying there had been any attack, which is why the authorities couldn't really keep the alleged attacker behind bars.

There was further confusion about what exactly happened last week when Marchand reportedly told the New York Post that the whole story was a case of "mistaken identity", and that she hadn't and had never claimed to have been the victim in any fracas involving Anthony. Which is confusing because the police had already reported that she was. So, make of all that what you will.

Police are expected, however, to continue to try and get to the bottom of what exactly happened on 23 Jun and, to that end, Anthony is due back in court on 9 Aug.
