Garth Brooks: Country star accused of rape in lawsuit

In May 2019, the accuser alleges that Mr Brooks asked her to travel with him on his private jet to a Grammy tribute in Los Angeles. When they arrived at the hotel, Mr Brooks had only booked a single suite with one bedroom for them both to share, according to the legal action. Her lawsuit alleges that once inside the hotel suite, Mr Brooks appeared naked in the doorway of the bedroom before he raped her. After the alleged attack, she says Mr Brooks continued to make sexual advances on other occasions, forcing her to put her hands on his genitals and sharing his fantasies, the lawsuit states. The legal action also alleges Mr Brooks proposed to Jane Roe that they have a threesome with his wife, fellow country star Trisha Yearwood. In his statement to the BBC, Mr Brooks said: “For the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars. Mr Brooks said that Jane Roe had levelled the accusation after he refused her request for salaried employment and medical benefits. Mr Brooks’s lawsuit also said the accusations were a threat designed to cause “substantial, irreparable damage” to his reputation, family and career. On Thursday, Jane Roe’s lawyers filed their 27-page legal action in Los Angeles Superior Court. In addition to sexual assault and battery, her lawsuit accuses Mr Brooks of repeatedly exposing himself, making sexually explicit comments and sending inappropriate text messages. – This Summarize was created by Neural News AI (V1).
