On Monday, Travis Scott was questioned for the first time in an 8-hour deposition regarding the multiple lawsuits stemming from the 2021 Astroworld Festival tragedy in Houston, Texas.
Scott’s spokesperson, Ted Anastasiou, told PEOPLE: “Travis Scott’s deposition is typical legal procedure. What is not typical is how the media continues to focus on him despite being cleared of any wrongdoing by extensive government investigations, including by the Houston Police Department.”
He added, “Travis is fully cooperating with the legal process while still remaining committed to his tour in support of his record-breaking album, Utopia, and his charitable efforts to support at-risk communities.”
In June, a Texas grand jury reviewed the possibility of charging Scott and the event planners but ultimately did not file any criminal charges.
According to his attorney, Kent Schaffer, “Today’s decision by the Harris County District Attorney confirms what we have known all along — that Travis Scott is not responsible for the AstroWorld tragedy.”
