Nelly looks to be on the road to redemption.

Exactly one week ago the rap star hit headlines when he was arrested after being accused of rape.

Now, it appears as though vindication is on the horizon.

Find out why below…

Per TMZ, the woman at the centre of the scandal is refusing to testify, and wants the whole matter dropped.

Nelly’s attorney Scott Rosenblum said the claimant’s “reckless accusation, once investigated thoroughly, was exposed for what it was-a fabrication. A fabrication that has caused Nelly and his family to suffer emotionally and financially.”

What’s more, the St. Louis native’s legal team apparently want a public apology from the woman, and will recommend the star consider taking legal action against her.

For what it’s worth, the accuser’s lawyer Karen Koehler says she feels the system has failed her client.
