“Mr. and Mrs. Harris want to be on record and more importantly want the public to know they emphatically deny in the strongest way possible the egregiously appalling allegations being made against them by Sabrina Peterson,” the statement reads. “The Harrises have had difficulty with this woman for well over a decade. They are taking this matter very seriously, and if these allegations don’t end, they will take appropriate legal action.”<\/p>\n

Sabrina has previously shared other allegations about T.I. and Tiny, as well. After the pair’s official statement came out, Sabrina took to Instagram to accuse them of lying. “LET’S TAKE A LIE DETECTOR TEST!!” she taunted. She even took it a step further by revealing that she was looking into a “credible” resource to make a lie detector test happen. “If you know a credible lie detection service please forward me their info,” she wrote. “I would like to go today.”<\/p>\n
