Sha'Carri Richardson
A few weeks ago track star Sha’Carri Richardson said that she was healing from an abusive relationship that she had with another female athlete. To add to the story, her partner has now come forward to admit the allegations of abuse.
24 year old Janeek Brown came forward in an Instagram live to address the issue, showing little remorse for the situation. “I admit I was abusive once that there is physical evidence of. And we moved on…I was trying to move on and we still got nowhere,” said Brown to yahoo.com. Richardson was in the relationship for around two years and the outcome of it was heartbreaking.
Sha’Carri Richardson slowly healing from trauma
“I was in a relationship with a Jamaican athlete that never cared about me from jump. I was abused and stole from yet protected her from the judgment of her country & family while they dragged me. I had to deal with homophobic and so much more that I’m still healing from,” said Richardson. Brown said that she could not speak about her relationship with Richardson, because it was between them.
Brown said that the decision of Richardson to speak publicly about the issue was just her ‘clout chasing’, and went on to call her a ‘chickenhead’. Richardson although, has a new reason to celebrate after winning the 2022 Duval County Challenge American Track League with a time of 11.27 seconds.
