On October 18, 2022, the Los Angeles Superior Court sentenced actor Kaalan Walker to 50 years in prison. Earlier in the year, a jury convicted Walker on a litany of charges, including three counts of forcible rape and two counts of intoxication rape.
The prosecution alleged that Walker lured the girls with false promises of employment before assaulting them. Deputy District Attorney Cynthia Wallace said Rolling Stone:
“He chose these girls and appealed to their hopes and dreams, named them Drake, and used his connection to Halle Berry to get these girls somewhere and gain their trust.”
Kaalan is not married and was reportedly dating Halle Berry when he was arrested.
Kaalan Walker is single and not married. The private rapper kept a tight rein on his love life, but he couldn’t shake the rumors linking him to Halle Berry.
Walker and Berry worked together in 2018 Kings and reportedly developed a romantic bond. The couple reportedly dated for a while before the police arrested Kaalan. It is not clear if the rumors have any truth.
Unconfirmed reports claim that Halle Berry posted Kaalan’s $1 million bail. One of Kaalan’s victims questioned Berry’s silence on the matter: “The fact that he didn’t say anything [about] a bunch of black women being raped like a black icon, it honestly breaks my heart.”
Singer Kehlani expressed her support for the victims of Kaalan
In March 2021, singer Kehlani expressed her support for the victims of Kaalan. She tweeted: “I stand with the victims of a serial RAPIST who I personally knew to be aggressive, dangerous and twisted. He was released on bail.”
Kehlani accused Kaalan and his followers of attacking their victims and allies. Kaalan responded to Kehlani, saying that he was heartbroken by his stance. The convicted rapist alleged via Instagram that he supported Kehlani during the beginning of her career and she confessed her love for him. Kaalan wrote on IG Stories:
“I brought you into my house when you were homeless and you lived with me for six months before your career took off. You told me you were in love with me behind closed doors. Now you are encouraging your 12,000,000 followers to fabricate accusations against me.”
