The lawsuit, filed in Florida federal court through Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, claims Cooper operated multiple social media accounts to spread false narratives about the rapper. According to the filing, Cooper's alleged harassment stems from a "close relationship" with Tory Lanez and his father.

Key allegations in the lawsuit include:

  • False claims about the disappearance of the firearm used in Megan's shooting (which remains in LAPD custody)
  • Unauthorized distribution of an AI-generated deepfake video showing sexually explicit content
  • Livestreaming misleading information during court hearings
  • Coordinated harassment campaigns using social media bots

The lawsuit seeks damages for:

  • Promotion of altered sexual depiction
  • Cyberstalking
  • Intentional infliction of emotional distress
  • Invasion of privacy

Megan's legal team argues these actions have caused significant personal, emotional, and economic harm to the artist's career and reputation. Cooper has acknowledged the lawsuit on social media and indicated plans for a countersuit through her attorneys.
