Tokyo Toni is putting a hard stop to folks who say Blac Chyna is violent ... insisting she's not and never has been.
We caught up with Tokyo Toni, Wednesday at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse and she told us, her daughter isn't a threat to anyone. Toni says Blac Chyna is not that kinda girl. She was quick to add, the Kardashians are the violent ones, saying their show, 'KUWTK,' proves it.
TT tells us ... they're all trying to paint her and her daughter as crazy people, but in reality, they are just standing up for their rights.
Toni might have a hard time convincing some folks because she's had issues of her own.
Remember ... Tokyo was actually banned from the courtroom after firing shots at the Kardashians on Instagram live. She dug herself into a deeper hole after threatening the judge for kicking her out, saying ... "I'm gonna get that judge".
We should note, TT later backtracked and said she was referring to Kris Jenner when she used the word "judge" -- not the actual one in court ... though in context, that makes no sense.
As we reported, Black Chyna is suing the Kardashians for $100 mil ... for allegedly getting her 2017 reality show, with Rob Kardashian, canceled.
Toni says she's here only to support her daughter, who, BTW ... she says is staying positive about all this.

Rob Kardashian 'I Didn't Love Chyna When We Got Engaged' ... She Held Gun to My Head Several Times
4:26 PM PT -- Rob got heated on the stand, Chyna's attorney continued to point out the fact Rob didn't have any marks on his face after she allegedly attacked him with a metal rod. Rob shouted, "Stop trying to make it sound like it didn't happen ... There were no marks on my face or neck. That doesn't mean it didn't happen."
He also touched on loving photos Chyna had posted when the two were together, making it seem like they were in a happy relationship -- saying they were mostly Chyna's idea for social media clout. In photos, Rob said, "I don't like to leave the house, it upsets me. I'm insecure about my body. I've gained some weight. I don't like going out."
Rob Kardashian says his relationship with Blac Chyna started when he was going through the worst part of his life, and says he didn't even love her when they got engaged ... all during bombshell testimony.
Rob took the stand Wednesday in the case between Chyna and his family. He said things in his relationship with Chyna happened fast ... and thought she was right for him because she accepted him when he was going through his "lowest point."
He testified things went south quickly, and when he asked her to marry him, he didn't even love her ... "It wasn't real love. I had a baby with this girl."
Rob testified Chyna beat him at least 5 times over the course of their relationship. He continued, "I had a gun held to my head several times by this woman. That's not love."
Rob also detailed the night when Chyna allegedly strangled him with a phone cord, saying she'd been doing cocaine and drinking all night. He says the incident caused him to hire full time security out of fear for his life and for his daughter, Dream.
As we've reported, all of Rob's sisters, except Kendall and Kourtney, have taken the stand over the last couple of weeks. During Khloe's testimony, emails she had allegedly sent E! execs were read in which she expressed concerns Rob and Chyna's turbulent relationship could hurt the family brand ... she also suggested she might leave 'KUWTK' if the volatile behavior continued.
In other testimony, Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble say they believed Chyna had posed a very real threat to Rob's life ... Gamble says he intervened one night during a nasty fight between the couple -- where Chyna allegedly threatened to kill Rob.
Chyna's suing the family for $100 million ... alleging they torpedoed her "Rob & Chyna" show and in turn, caused her to lose out on a ton of money.

Olivia Wilde Served Custody Papers by Sudeikis at CinemaCon
5:00 PM PT -- A source close to Jason tells TMZ ... "Papers were drawn up to establish jurisdiction relating to the children of Ms. Wilde and Mr. Sudeikis."
The source adds ... "Mr. Sudeikis had no prior knowledge of the time or place that the envelope would have been delivered as this would solely be up to the process service company involved and he would never condone her being served in such an inappropriate manner."
Olivia Wilde endured a bit of embarrassment at CinemaCon this week -- while she was in the middle of screening the trailer of her new movie -- her ex served her legal docs.
The awkward moment was seen by multiple people who were in the room Tuesday when OW was on hand in Vegas to screen a never-before-seen trailer for her erotic thriller flick "Don't Worry Darling" -- which stars her beau Harry Styles and Florence Pugh.
The word is ... while Olivia was talking on stage, somebody came up and placed a manila envelope right down next to her at her feet -- which was marked 'Personal and Confidential.'
Olivia was photographed picking it up, taking a peek inside ... and then carrying on like nothing had really happened. But something certainly had -- according to Deadline, there were court papers in there courtesy of Jason Sudeikis ... with whom she shares two children.
The outlet says, citing sources, the docs involve child custody. As you know, they publicly split about a year and some change ago ... and since then, she's been in a whirlwind romance with Harry -- whom she also cast in her highly-anticipated film.
It appears that Jason and Olivia were getting along okay in the wake of their split -- but this clearly suggests otherwise. You gotta figure Jason wouldn't just do this to embarrass her if he didn't have to ... so, presumably, he hadn't been able to get these to her in a normal setting.

In any case, it definitely isn't pretty -- and lends to the idea that ... maybe they're not so copacetic as they put on. Also, this could potentially mean a custody battle is brewing. 😬

Blac Chyna is getting some serious law enforcement protection as she battles the Kardashian family in court ... getting a personal escort from Sheriff's Deputies as she navigates the courthouse.
Check out the video, you see Chyna and her team surrounded by at least 3 deputies during a courtroom break Wednesday. Our law enforcement sources tell us it's standard for all parties involved in high-profile cases to be provided security during their trials.
This means the Kardashians have the same protections as Chyna -- including a private room they are taken to during breaks -- and armed security that stand outside the door. There were reports only the family had protections, which clearly isn't the case.
Wednesday's testimony hasn't been as explosive as other days, Corey Gamble and Chyna's former attorney, Walter Mosley, have taken the stand so far.
It was on Tuesday when Gamble described a violent night between Rob and Chyna in which he alleges he heard Chyna threaten to kill Rob. Kim, Khloe, Kris and Chyna have all testified ... but no word yet on if or when Rob will be asked to take the stand.

DaBaby's legal team says folks are wrong for jumping to conclusions over a recently surfaced video of the rapper shooting and killing a man at a Walmart ... they say it actually supports the rapper's defense.
Here's the deal ... Rolling Stone published surveillance footage Sunday from the 2018 fatal shooting in North Carolina, and the article appeared to question DaBaby's self-defense narrative.
DaBaby shot and killed 19-year-old Jaylin Craig in 2018, a shooting the rapper claims was in self-defense.

New security footage obtained by Rolling Stone shows that DaBaby appears to be the aggressor, and contradicts key aspects of his version of events. https://t.co/TGZjJ0Da6o pic.twitter.com/M7kbKur3U9
DaBaby's lawyers, Drew Findling and Marissa Goldberg, tell TMZ ... the video was reviewed by prosecutors back in 2018 ... and they concluded DaBaby acted in self-defense and therefore was not prosecuted for homicide.
We're told the video was even viewed by a Mecklenburg County judge in connection with a misdemeanor charge for not having the proper permits for his gun.
As for the self-defense part, DaBaby told cops the victim and another accomplice were following him around the Walmart store, and allegedly threatened him and flashed a gun ... causing him to feel the need to protect himself.
The rapper's attorney tells us, "Witnesses were interviewed and corroborated Mr. Kirk's statement. The entirety of the surveillance video was viewed and determined to corroborate Mr. Kirk's statement ... Mr. Kirk was protecting himself and his family at the time of the shooting."

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the armorer on the set of "Rust," was completely beside herself after the fatal on-set shooting that killed Halyna Hutchins ... this according to her attorney.
Hannah's lawyer, Jason Bowles, tells TMZ ... one of the first things she asked Lt. Benavides after the shooting is "Are they okay?" and "Is she okay?"
Hannah's in the body cam footage ... pretty clearly distraught and breathing heavily as she speaks to the lieutenant. Hannah talks to another crew member as she looks like she's panicking and grabbing her hair, telling them she's been yelled at several times already ... unclear what about.
A cart containing the rounds is wheeled up to Hannah ... as she attempts to show the lieutenant the rounds in question, she says she's "so scared" while seemingly hyperventilating. She then starts to cry while apologizing for what happened.
Other footage shows Hannah calling the event the worst day of her life.
At one point, she asked to be taken to a squad car away from her coworkers, saying, "I just want to get the f*** out of here and never show my face in this industry again."
As we reported, the footage is among hours released by the Santa Fe County Sheriff on Monday, including the body cam taken of Alec Baldwin concerned for Halyna Hutchins.
Law enforcement's investigation into the shooting continues, but both Baldwin and Gutierrez-Reed have been named defendants in civil litigation stemming from the incident.

Caroline Schwitzky, famous for appearing on ''90 Day Fiancé," survived an alleged murder attempt by her boyfriend after witnesses say he tried to strangle and drown her ... this according to law enforcement.
Officers for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission say the alleged murder attempt went down Sunday in West Palm Beach, FL ... where witnesses told police Caroline and Cole Goldberg, whom she says is her boyfriend of 1 year, got into a heated argument on a boat.
According to the report, obtained by TMZ, witnesses told cops Caroline tried to get away from Cole, but he was holding and aggressively grabbing her to keep her onboard. The struggle went on for around 20 minutes, and then Caroline began punching Cole's arms to free herself.
Officers say they were told Caroline eventually managed to break free and jump off the boat, swimming toward a nearby boat. Cole apparently jumped in after her, caught up to her in the water and allegedly tried to push her under.
Witnesses also claimed Cole grabbed Caroline by the throat with both hands, attempting to strangle her while holding her under the water in a rage.
The people who claim they saw it all go down told officers ... they screamed at Cole to stop, to no avail ... he kept holding Caroline underwater.
According to the report, several people from a nearby boat jumped in the water to rescue her. They managed to pull Caroline up and away from Cole, and even used a stick to keep him at bay.
Officers arrested Cole for attempted first-degree murder. He was also hit with a battery charge.
The report says Caroline, a CEO of a Miami talent agency who appeared on "90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?" back in 2016, also had bruises on her arm.
According to jail records, 23-year-old Cole was booked just after midnight Monday and was released a few hours later after posting a $60,000 bond.
We reached out to Cole ... so far no word back.

Corey Gamble Chyna Threatened To Kill Rob ... I Broke Up Their Fight
Corey Gamble says he heard Blac Chyna threaten to kill Rob Kardashian multiple times during the night of their blowout fight ... once over the phone and again in person.
Corey was called to the stand Tuesday for the first time in Chyna's trial, giving his account of the fight the Kardashians say was very violent.
CG, who told the jury Kris Jenner is his partner in life, testified he was awoken that night from an incoming call from Rob to Kris ... and when Kris put the call on speaker, he heard Chyna screaming in the background over Rob.
Corey says he heard Chyna say to Rob ... "F*** you, I'm a kill you fat mother f*****."
Seeing it as a volatile situation, Corey says he knew he needed to help Rob, so he jumped out of bed, got dressed in a hurry and rushed over to Kylie Jenner's house only a few blocks away, where Rob and Chyna were staying.
Corey says he parked behind Rob's car and headed to the front door, which was unlocked. While he went alone, Corey says Kris wanted to go too, but he told her to stay put because he feared the situation could be dangerous.
At the front door, Corey says he heard Chyna shouting at Rob in anger, telling him she hated him and threatening that she "would kill him."
Once inside, Corey says he saw Chyna about 7 feet away from Rob, and she was holding a large rod of some sort in her hand, which she dropped when she saw Corey.
Chyna then ran towards Rob and picked up a long phone charging cord, Corey testified, whipping Rob and hitting him on his shoulder.
Corey says he jumped between them to break them apart and was hit in the process. He told the jury he told Rob to "get the hell outta here" because he thought the situation was dangerous, also testifying Chyna reeked of booze.
CG says Chyna took off after Rob as he tried to leave, telling the jury she was furious and wanted to keep attacking, but Corey says he stopped her from chasing after Rob and even tried to hide her keys.
Realizing he had blocked in Rob's car with his own, Corey says he went outside to move his whip ... but when he did, Chyna jumped back on Rob and continued hitting him, striking blows to Rob's head.
Corey says Chyna then took a nearby patio chair and threw it at Rob's car, hitting the front, and then tried to grab a small table and throw it as well ... but Corey says he stopped Chyna from doing so.
In earlier testimony, Chyna denied throwing anything at Rob's car and says she didn't threaten to kill him or hit him.

Khloe Kardashian Thought Rob & Chyna's Toxic Behavior Would Hurt Family's Brand
Khloe Kardashian just had her time on the stand, revealing she thought Blac Chyna's potentially dangerous behavior could damage the family's brand ... and even made her reconsider continuing to film "Keeping Up with The Kardashians."
Both Khloe and Kim Kardashian testified Tuesday in L.A. During Khloe's testimony, she said wanted to protect her brother from the “outrageous/chaotic/violent behavior" stemming from his relationship with Chyna, adding ... "we were all considering not being a part of such toxicity."
Alleged emails Khloe had sent were also presented, one read, “We are even considering not moving forward with our show if theirs continues, that’s how strongly we feel this is damaging to our family" another email to E!, Khloe mentioned the Rob and Chyna's relationship was potentially hurting the family brand.
BTW, Khloe didn't deny sending the emails, but insisted she was referring to Rob and Chyna's relationship and NOT their show.
Kim's testimony wasn't as exciting, as she said she couldn't remember a lot of the details that were brought up ... but one alleged message she had sent read, "Chyna can never be on her show." Kim clarified that message on the stand, saying her texts are often voice-dictated, and she meant to say "OUR show" ... meaning 'KUWTK.'
Rob has still not taken the stand ... but it's expected he'll testify before all is said and done.

Blac Chyna I Want a Redo on the Stand Revenge Porn Pics Triggered Me!!!

Exclusive Details
- 17.3K shares
Blac Chyna wants another shot to go under oath in her case against the Kardashians -- claiming the revenge porn pics shown to her during her time on the stand screwed up her testimony.
The model and influencer's legal team just filed court docs asking the judge to grant her another opportunity to take the stand to testify about her damages claim, and they want all the testimony after she was shown the photos to be stricken from the record.
The reason ... her attorneys argue that the Kardashians' lawyer presenting her nudes to her -- while they were questioning her about the TRO she took out against Rob -- was triggering.
They claim it caused BC to panic and cry on the witness stand, completely derailing the rest of her testimony ... with BC apparently not able to answer basic questions that they say she would've otherwise been able to address without issue. The photos, they claim, left her incredibly emotional ... and she was unable to regain her composure even after a break.
Chyna's team also alleges that introducing the photos at all violated a previous order of the court to prevent just this kind of thing from happening during the trial. With all that in mind, her attorneys say her testimony for that part should be stricken, and that she should get a partial redo to testify about damages.
Now, as for what the Kardashians are saying about this ... their team is calling BS.
Attorneys for the family filed a response to Chyna's request, and they say to allow her to get on the stand again is absolutely ridiculous -- and clearly, a desperate ploy to fix what they say was a "disastrous" day for her, as she apparently floundered under pressure during cross-examination.
They say that the 11 hours she spent on the stand is longer than the total amount of time she was on camera for "Rob & Chyna," which the Kardashians find rich ... since that's what she's suing them over.
Their attorneys also say it's no coincidence Chyna's asking for this after they've filed for a directed verdict on the damages issue, which would bypass the jury and leave that up to the judge.

Coachella Weekend 2 Sees More Busts ... Rowdier Crowd, It Seems!!!

It looks like people came to Coachella ready to party and break the law even more so on the second go-around this year -- because cops slapped on way more cuffs than Week 1.
The second-weekend data is out ... and according to Indio Police, officers made a total of 133 arrests from Friday through Sunday -- which is about 20 more busts than what they'd done the weekend prior ... and a whopping 36% more than Weekend 2 in 2019.
As for how the alleged crimes break down, IPD says 106 of those arrests were drug/alcohol or intoxication-related, 17 of them had to do with fake IDs, 5 were possession of drugs for sale and another 5 were miscellaneous.
Their ticket handouts were higher on the 2nd weekend as well compared to the first -- cops say they gave out 96 citations (compared to last week's 72) ... and that figure, they say, is 81% higher than what they doled out in 2019.
Seems lots of people were eager to whip out handicap placards ... because IPD says they gave 91 citations for the unlawful use of those. Four people allegedly parked in handicap stalls and 1 person brought an unregistered vehicle into the desert ... so claim the police.
Like we said ... the numbers are higher than they were on the week of the 15th, so it appears folks came down looking to go out with a bang seeing how Coachella won't be back for a full year.
If that was their goal, they certainly succeeded

Alec Baldwin Concern Over Halyna Hutchins' Condition ... Mins After 'Rust' Shooting
Alec Baldwin was deeply concerned over the condition of Halyna Hutchins just minutes after she was shot on the set of "Rust" ... as revealed in newly released police body cam footage.
In the video, obtained by TMZ, you see Alec sitting with Dave Halls, the movie's AD. Baldwin asks, "What's her story?" in asking about Halyna -- and another crew member tells him things aren't so good -- then a cop describes how the bullet entered the right side of Halyna's body and exited the left.
Halls breaks down, and Baldwin remains somber. At that point in the video, Hutchins was still alive, but fighting for her life as paramedics tended to her on scene. Police released footage of medics tending to Hutchins, but we've chosen not to show that.
As we reported, Hutchins later died of her injuries. The newly released video also gives a glimpse into the scene which resulted in Hutchins' death. Cops released footage from the scene rehearsal where you can see Baldwin pull his gun in a quickdraw.
The actor has maintained he never pulled the actual trigger on the gun, and it fired after the hammer recoiled ... as demonstrated in a computer-generated video from Hutchins family's legal team.
While it's the largest trove of evidence that's been released in the case so far, the investigation continues.
On Monday, D.A. Mary Carmack-Altwies put out a statement saying, "The Sheriff’s office is still awaiting essential reports and will not be completing their investigation until those reports have been submitted. The District Attorney’s office must wait until the complete investigation has been turned over by the Sheriff’s Office."
They continue, "Once we receive the completed investigation and conduct a thorough and deliberate review of all evidence, a criminal charging decision will be made.”

Kylie Jenner Testifies in Court Chyna Attacked Tyga with a Knife
5:07 PM PT -- The hearing has wrapped for the day, but one other thing of interest was when Kylie was asked whether or not she thought Chyna’s love for Rob was real or fake. Kylie responded, "I just felt maybe me dating the father of her child had something to do with it." Kylie was then asked if she thought Chyna was dating Rob out of spite to which she replied, "Maybe."
Kylie Jenner says she expressed her concerns to her brother when he got into a relationship with Blac Chyna ... because Kylie's own ex, Tyga, had warned Chyna was violent.
Kylie took the stand Monday in the Chyna v. Kardashian trial ... and Chyna's lawyer asked her about her relationship with Chyna. Kylie says she wouldn't have ever considered Chyna a close friend, but says Tyga -- who has a kid with Chyna -- once showed her a 6-inch long scar on his arm, claiming it was a knife wound at the hands of Chyna.
Chyna's attorney continued questioning, and Kylie revealed Tyga told her Chyna abused drugs and alcohol -- and they were to blame for the violent knife attack.
Kylie says she brought her concerns about Chyna's behavior to Rob Kardashian, but says Rob told her he was going to continue to date Chyna. Kylie said in court, "I felt it was my duty to express my concerns, but ultimately it was up to him."
This is the second week of testimony in the case ... we've heard from Kris, Chyna and now Kylie. Kim was not in court Monday ... as we reported, she's in D.C. with Pete Davidson.
Last week we also saw Chyna's mom, Tokyo Toni, get banned from the courtroom for bashing the Kardashian family and then she seemingly threatened the judge ... though she later told our camera the threat was aimed at Kris Jenner.

Johnny Depp Amber Accuses Him of Putting Cig Out on Her ... In Courtroom Audio
1:21 PM PT -- "I'm gonna die! You're causing me so much stress" -- those were Amber's words during yet another of her heated arguments with Johnny. Her legal team played an audio recording of the face-off in court, while Depp was on the stand.
She was begging him to stop fighting with her, and, instead, have a "normal argument." He agreed they needed some time apart, and asked a driver to take her back to their home in downtown Los Angeles. Johnny said she didn't seem "in any shape to drive."
On the recording, Depp also says, "This isn't love. This is not happiness."
In what is just another chapter in the toxic relationship that was Johnny Depp and Amber Heard -- new audio accuses Johnny of using Amber as his personal ashtray.
The audio was played Monday in court -- day 4 of Depp's testimony. You hear Amber say, "Put your f--king cigarettes out on someone else ... you f***** have consequences for your actions."
While there is no visual evidence in this instance, Amber Heard's lawyer pointed out the fact that Johnny doesn't deny burning her with a cig. In the audio, he simply responds, "shut up, fat*ss".
During the cross-examination Depp denied ever throwing a cig at Heard or using her to put one out ... He said, "I think that was a grossly exaggerated moment by Ms. Heard".
This is the latest damning claim to come from the ongoing trial. Amber's lawyer played another audio clip, where Amber says ... "After you beat the sh*t out of me then a week later you show up at my doorstep."
As you know, Depp is suing his ex-wife for $50 million, claiming she lied when she accused him of physically abusing her ... Amber is countersuing for $100 mil for defamation, claiming he coordinated a smear campaign against her.
Last week, JD kicked off his testimony by saying he'd never hit Amber -- despite her claims -- and that he was there in court seeking the truth, no matter what.
It has been a complete showdown in court ... with both making explosive accusations against the other, and it looks like it will only continue.

Free-Fall Terror Parents of Teen Who Died ... Sue Park for Wrongful Death
The teenager who fell to his death at a ride in Florida should've never been allowed to get onboard -- something his folks are now claiming in a new lawsuit against the park.
Nekia Dodd and Yarnell Sampson -- the parents of late 14-year-old Tyre Sampson -- have filed a wrongful death suit, via attorneys Michael Haggard -- the managing partner of Harrard Law Firm -- and Ben Crump, against ICON Park and its pertinent associates, including the creators and operators of the free-fall ride itself, claiming negligence ... among other counts.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Sampson's parents allege the attraction in question had certain height and weight restrictions that their son was in clear violation of ... and which should've been addressed either via signage or from the staff itself on site.
His parents, however, claim none of that happened that day -- namely, they say there were NO signs to dissuade people from getting on who shouldn't, and nobody working there said anything either ... so Tyre got in thinking there wasn't a problem, when there clearly was.
Not just that, but the parents also claim the ride itself wasn't as safe as it should've been compared to other rides of the same nature ... alleging those other free-fall type drops are often protected against with not just a shoulder harness, but a seatbelt as well -- SOP, they insist.
This IP ride, though, did NOT have a seatbelt, per the lawsuit, and the Sampsons believe that contributed to their son being ejected from his seat and plummeting to the ground.
"I'd like to extend my deepest condolences to the family of the young man who lost his life late last night after falling from the Orlando Free Fall attraction. We can't imagine the pain and anguish that his family must be going through."- OCSO Sheriff John Mina pic.twitter.com/a6tRdVn9PC

As you know ... Tyre hit the ground from about a 100-foot height and succumbed to his injuries. In addition to negligence, Tyre's parents are also claiming strict liability against some of the defendants. They're asking for damages and a jury trial before a judge.
Tyre's parents are expected to share some public comments Tuesday.

Former MTV 'Making The Band' star Chopper has been busted for sex trafficking ... with law enforcement accusing him of being a pimp.
Chopper was arrested earlier this month in Maryland and he's being extradited to Las Vegas to face sex trafficking charges in Sin City.
According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, an undercover vice detective in Nevada posing as a sex worker says Chopper direct messaged them on Instagram with an apparent offer to make money through prostitution.
The undercover cop says they searched Chopper's IG account and noticed several posts related to prostitution and pimping, including posts where Chopper flaunted wealth and made references to being a pimp ... including one image of him inside a plane with a phone alongside the caption, "Sending em," with a money bag and crown emoji.
In the docs, the undercover cop says they launched an investigation into Chopper after seeing social media evidence of a potential sex trafficking operation.
The undercover says Chopper called them and bragged about frequent travel and having 7 homes across the country, including one in Las Vegas, while also telling the undercover Sin City was not a safe place to do business because law enforcement was cracking down.
What's more, the undercover says they had a phone interview with Chopper and after passing the test, Chopper told them he would make them part of his "team" and "stable."
The undercover says Chopper then became aggressive with them over the phone, ordering them around like he might do to a sex worker, telling them to pack their belongings, get to the airport and meet him in Charlotte, N.C. to join his "stable."
From there, the undercover says they stalled by telling Chopper they were scared to leave home ... with Chopper trying to verbally force them to make the trip, getting angry and demanding a $2,000 fee.
Between the alleged social media posts, direct messages, phone calls and fee demand ... the undercover says there was then enough evidence to arrest and charge Chopper with felony sex trafficking.
We reached out to Chopper's camp ... so far no word back.
