Ricky Martin has been cleared of all charges brought against him on July 15, 2022. The charges were dropped in a Puerto Rican court and, if convicted, Martin would have faced up to 50 years in prison.
As reported by TMZ, Ricky Martin's 21-year-old nephew, Dennis Yadiel Sanchez, brought a claim against the singer alleging incest and and domestic violence suffered by Martin. The Grammy winner refuted the claims and Martin's attorney, Marty Singer, told TMZ "Unfortunately, the person who made this claim is struggling with deep mental health challenges. Ricky Martin has, of course, never been - and would never be - involved in any kind of sexual or romantic relationship with his nephew."
Upon news of the court decision Martin posted a message from his attorneys on Twitter and Instagram with the caption "Truth prevails"
