Marilyn Manson is taking ex-fiancée Evan Rachel Wood to court over her allegations of abuse that occurred over the course of the relationship between the widely accused shock rocker and the Westworld star.
"This action arises from the wrongful and illegal acts done in furtherance of a conspiracy by Defendant Evan Rachel Wood and her on-again, off-again romantic partner, Defendant Ashley Gore, a/k/a Illma Gore, to publicly cast Plaintiff Brian Warner, p/k/a Marilyn Manson, as a rapist and abuser—a malicious falsehood that has derailed Warner's successful music, TV, and film career," reads the complaint filed Wednesday morning in Los Angeles Superior Court (read it here).
The suit, which is seeking a jury trial, goes on to make some hard and specific accusations against Wood and Gore, alleging that the duo hacked into the singer's computers and social media, as well as "created a fictitious email account to manufacture purported evidence that Warner was emailing illicit pornography." The vivid complaint also drops even bigger bombshells of jurisdictional and ethical significance:
They impersonated an actual agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation by forging and distributing a fictitious letter from the agent, to create the false appearance that Warner's alleged "victims" and their families were in danger, and that there was a federal criminal investigation of Warner ongoing (Attachment A);
They provided checklists and scripts to prospective accusers, listing the specific alleged acts of abuse that they should claim against Warner (Attachments B and C); and
They made knowingly false statements to prospective accusers (which have since been repeated by those accusers in court filings), including the defamatory claim that Warner filmed the sexual assault of a minor.
I like this part,
"We're filing this now because we have been able to gather an overwhelming trove of evidence – including both documents and witness statements – which proves that the stories that Evan Rachel Wood and her co-conspirator Illma Gore have been falsifying and spreading are both vindictive and demonstrably untrue," Manson's main attorney Howard King told Deadline. "It's incredibly important to differentiate between the character of 'Marilyn Manson' and the man Brian Warner," added the King, Holmes, Paterno & Soriano partner. "Wood's claims may resonate because of the intentionally 'shocking' character of 'Marilyn Manson' but they simply do not reflect the truth. The manufactured facts these conspirators scripted a decade after the event never happened."
So the guy that sang the n-word at every show, bragged about having a rape room and being on drugs 24 hours a day, for 20+ years is just a character. Yeahokay.gif
I don't believe this for one second. This is a counter suit to try to save Manson's failing career.
