OK, you may be thinking this is really bizarre sounding, but how does this implicate Dr. Dre?

Additionally, the documents claim Deputy Boyd was questioned by authorities about the shooting and subsequently resigned from the department.

It probably won’t surprise you to know that Dr. Dre’s attorneys say the claim is “ridiculous.” However, the LA County Sheriff’s department has still hasn’t responded … yet.
