Despite accusations of being a snitch, Brittney Taylor is not backing down from her accusations that Remy Ma attacked her just days ago. The rapper and Love & Hip Hop New York star made a public statement on Instagram saying that her castmate gave her a black eye. "So, here am I on my way to a very important meeting and it’s hard to even focus because of what occurred last night," she wrote. "I didn’t wanna bring it to social media because Its pretty embarrassing and not a good look tbh. I tried my best to cover it up with make up and move on but that still didn’t work. My Question is @remyma why did you really do this?"

It's confusing that she has no idea why someone would assault her, so there's obviously more here than we know. The "All The Way Up" rapper has yet to respond to the allegations, but there are reports that she is being investigated for the reported beat down. To fuel those rumors, an attorney who goes by the name "MarcTheLawyer" on Instagram, a man named Marc Battipaglia who states he's a personal injury and civil rights attorney, did a post and delete, saying that he stands by Taylor because she is a victim.

"Let's not forget that @brittneyftaylor claims she is a victim and she's lucky to have people like @africandina to support her through this difficult time," Marc wrote. "If people continue to attack victims then we will all deter future victims from coming forward to hold wrongdoers accountable. I stand with Brittney."

Meanwhile, responses to Brittney's accusations have been mixed. Tory Lanez told her, "My n*gga . Take this down." One follower wrote, "Y’all crazy saying she dumb for going to the police let someone knock u out. You going let them get away with it. No IM CALLING THE POLICE YOU WANNA HIT ME YES JAil time!," while another person said, "Bih a victim of what?! Your own ego? Spare me. She’s mad corny for this."
