In an exclusive statement to PEOPLE, Sehorn’s attorney George V. Laughrun said of the news: “After careful consideration, and almost four months of investigation, the DA filed that the state has insufficient evidence to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. Ms. Seahorn is pleased that the charges were dropped and is excited to get on with her life.”

A spokesperson for the Mecklenburg County DA’s Office in North Carolina also tells PEOPLE in a statement: “No evidence was ever submitted to the District Attorney’s Office for review and the victim business did not respond to contact from our office about cooperating with the prosecution of that case. As such, there was insufficient evidence to proceed.”
