She filed documents asking the court to redact portions of a transcript from a July hearing in her sexual assault case against Mueller. At the hearing, her lawyers specifically talked about her security detail and specific threats made against her in the past, reports tmz.com. 
 
The singer has claimed that the transcript contains sensitive and personal information which could jeopardize her safety if made public record. 
 
The entertainment portal quoted her legal team as saying: "The same people who have threatened Ms. Swift in the past, as well as copy cats, may be emboldened by public attention they'd get if the whole transcript comes out."
