We’ve obtained some of the DMs sent to Jennifer, which include inflammatory insults, someone wishing death upon her, and we’re told there was also a concerning tweet in which someone shared her personal contact information.

Blackburn says the scary response from Nicki’s fans reinforces what Jennifer expressed in her ‘Real’ interview — she’s had to live her life in constant fear for years, change her phone, move and quit jobs … all because of her connection to Petty.

If you aren’t familiar, Jennifer was the victim in Petty’s 1995 conviction for first-degree attempted rape in NY — which is why he has to register as a sex offender. You may recall, Petty was charged with not registering in California, and recently took a plea deal.

In August, Hough sued Nicki and Kenneth for allegedly harassing and threatening her to not speak about the incident. On a more positive note, Blackburn says Jennifer’s TV appearance has inspired other women to tell their own stories, and they’ve reached out to say they’re standing behind her.

We’re told in the past 24 hours, Blackburn’s received messages from 30 different women expressing their support for Jennifer and thanking her for her bravery
