Nicki Minaj is facing opposition from her new neighbors in the upscale Hidden Hills area of Los Angeles. This is because of her husband Kenneth Petty's past. He was convicted of attempted rape in New York back in 1995 and spent over four years in prison for the crime. He was also sentenced to ten years in prison for a manslaughter charge in 2006, but only served seven.
Since then, Petty has had to register as a sex offender wherever he lives. After Nicki purchased her home in December 2022, Petty recently filed new legal docs to change his address on the Megan's Law website. Beverly Barden, a Hidden Hills resident, launched a petition shortly after the couple moved in, asking neighbors to support the effort to get Petty out of their community.
Barden is concerned that Nicki and Petty's presence will impact the value of homes and create safety concerns in the area. She said that it would lead to children and women being a target. Barden believes the residents of Hidden Hills must put safety first and not wait for a letter from the government saying a predator has moved in.
So far, the petition has reached 971 signatures of its 1,000-signature goal. It seems that many Hidden Hills taxpayers want Kenneth Petty gone. Nicki Minaj has yet to comment on the situation, though she has previously stood by her husband and denied his request to get off the sex offender list.
