“Black Ink Crew” Star Ceaser Emanuel Claims Dog Abuse Video Is A Set Up & Doesn’t Depict The Full Story: The way I’m being portrayed–that’s not my character

“Black Ink Crew” star Ceaser Emanuel is setting the record straight and wants to clear his name!Just hours after it was announced Ceaser Emanuel, 43, was fired from VH1 due to a viral video of him abusing his dog with a metal chair, the reality star spoke out claiming the video isn’t quite what it seems.

Ceaser claims he was simply breaking up a fight between his two dogs, until one of them allegedly went after him. He told sources,

“I know the footage looks crazy, even me looking at it looks crazy. But it’s a moment in time I wish I could take back…I came home and my dogs were attacking each other, and I don’t mean the regular play fighting. I mean they were going for each other’s necks, basically trying to kill each other. When I separated the dogs, one of the dogs attacked me.”

Ceaser then claims that when he opened the garage door in hopes of de-escalating the situation, he says he was scared as his dog became aggressive.

“I was nervous and I was scared.. I was trying to back the dog down. Not one time was I trying to abuse this dog… I’m not going to make excuses for myself, I should have behaved better but that’s not me being cruel to animals, I’m not that. What I did was a mistake.”

Ceaser goes on to say he feels this is a setup since the footage came from his homes ‘Ring Camera.’

“I don’t know how the footage got leaked, I know [the footage] was off my Ring Camera. I feel like I’m being set up in some way. The way I’m being portrayed–that’s not my character.”

Ceaser also revealed that he has received death threats and is afraid of his safety.

As previously reported, VH1’s “Black Ink Crew” star Ceaser Emanuel has been fired from the show and the network after a video surfaced of him allegedly abusing dogs.

A spokesperson for VH1 released a statement Thursday (Jan. 23) addressing the matter. They wrote:

“We have made the decision to cut ties with Ceaser Emanuel from Black Ink Crew New York. Since next season was close to finishing production, this decision will not impact the upcoming season.”

Black Ink Crew longtime cast member, Donna Lombardi, quickly commented under the posts with a handclap emoji, seemingly approving of the network’s decision. Lombardi reposted the video footage on her Instagram page Wednesday (Jun.22). In her caption, she called Ceaser Emanuel a sick person and a monster and wanted him to be cancelled. She wrote:

“If you can treat a dog like this, it shows how sick of a person you truly are. I don’t even get into the life of this man, but this video made me so upset. Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE animals. Especially dogs.”

She continued,

“Even after he beat his daughter up, @vh1@viacom_intl & the new @blackinkcrew producers tried to protect Ceaser, even made up fake conflicting storylines about my relationship to do it! Now this, cannot be undone. I pray the people see you, @ceaserblackink , as the monster you are. Your karma has been adding up for years, but to do this to an innocent dog!?! This is crazy. CHARGES NEED TO BE PRESSED, and CANCELLATIONS NEED TO BE MADE! THE WORLD IS WATCHING! EVERYONE MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE! CANT CHANGE THIS NARRATIVE!”
