In October, Cardi B was charged with two misdemeanor counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of assault after allegedly ordering an attack at a Queens, New York strip club in August. Today (December 7), Cardi appeared in a Queens court where the judge declined to set bail, allowing her to leave on her own recognizance, according to the Associated Press and the Queens District Attorney. The judge also ordered Cardi not to have any contact—in person or on social media—with the alleged victims in the case, providing them with an order of protection. Her next court date is scheduled for Thursday, January 31, 2019.
Pitchfork has contacted representatives for Cardi B and the Queens District Attorney.
The alleged incident involves two bartenders at Angels Strip Club in Queens, New York who claim that Cardi ordered her associates to attack them with bottles and chairs, according to TMZ. In an October statement to the Associated Press, Cardi’s attorney Jeff Kern said that he is “aware of no evidence” that Cardi “caused anybody any harm.”
