*”Superfly” actor and rapper Kaalan “KR” Walker is accused of raping over 30 women that he allegedly met via social media while posing as a photographer.
As reported by MadameNoire, the rape and sexual abuse allegations date back as far as 2013. Walker pleaded not guilty to 6 counts of rape and 2 counts of unlawful intercourse with a minor, in addition to multiple felonies, AceSHowBiz reported.
Walker’s attorney argued that all the encounters with the alleged victims “was in consensual and voluntary contact.”

Walker’s attorney continued, “There’s no abduction rape. There’s no forced rape. Purportedly, he is giving them information like, ‘Hey, I could put you in a movie. I could put you in a rap video. I could create a star.’ And that’s what gets them to do things they might not normally want to do.”
His lawyer argued that the accusers are bitter because “the stardom and glory didn’t come to fruition, they’re lying and saying he assaulted them. We believe that every one of these young ladies is lying.”
One of the alleged victims, Sydney Standford, testified that Walker locked her inside of a car after a photoshoot in 2017 and raped her.
Walker faces life behind bars if found guilty on all charges.
Walker screen credits include 2018’s “Superfly” in 2018, Halle Berry’s “Kings” and 2018’s “In Contempt.”
