Garth Brooks accused of rape in lawsuit filed after his own legal action

A longtime makeup artist and stylist to Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks claims the “The Thunder Rolls” singer brutally sexually assaulted her multiple times in an extremely graphic lawsuit filed today in Los Angeles.

“Brooks took what he saw as an opportunity to subject a female employee to a side of Brooks that he keeps hidden from the public, says the jury looking into a complaint about financially strapped Jane Roe when the country superstar started hiring more in 2019. “ This side of Brooks believes he is entitled to sexual gratification whenever he wants it, and using a female employee to get it is fair game.”

With stories of repeated ‘painful and traumatic’ rapes, assaults and other abuse, ‘fair game’ is an understatement in a dossier so vivid that at one point it concerns actions by multiple Grammy winner Brooks, too nasty to be ‘here’. to mention’.

Jane Roe’s complaint, seeking unspecified damages, comes as Brooks himself, under the mantle of a John Doe, went to federal court in Mississippi a few weeks ago to dismiss the so-called “trumped up lawsuit.” fuses. The stadium entertainer claimed that if Jane Roe’s allegations became known to the public, it would cause “substantial, irreparable damage” to his reputation and livelihood.

In fact, that bridge now appears to have been crossed, as the Wigdor Act represented Jane Roe calling out the Brooks lawsuit in her own action.

“Brooks’ Abusive Mississippi Action is a blatant attempt to further control and bully his sexual assault victim by using his multi-millionaire resources to game the justice system,” explains Jane Roe’s complaint about the singer’s initial action “while he pretends to be in discussions with Ms. Roe to resolve her legal claims against him.”

Jane Roe’s filing continues: “Brooks is desperate to prevent his millions of fans from learning about the horrific things he said and did to a young female employee who did nothing to deserve such treatment. But our justice system is not designed to give wealthy offenders the opportunity to take on sexual assault victims who are trying to hold perpetrators accountable.”

Representatives for Brooks did not respond to Deadline’s request for comment on the sexual assault allegations. If they do, this post will be updated.

Jane Roe’s attorneys did have something to say beyond the confines of their client’s detailed complaint

“We applaud our client’s courage in moving forward with her complaint against Garth Brooks,” attorneys Douglas H. Wigdor, Jeanne M. Christensen and Hayley Baker said in a joint statement when Jane Roe’s complaint was filed Thursday with LASC .

“Today’s complaint shows that sexual predators exist not only in corporate America, Hollywood, and the rap and rock ‘n’ roll industries, but also in the world of country music,” the trio added. “We are confident that Brooks will be held accountable for his actions and his attempts to silence our client by filing a preemptive complaint in Mississippi was nothing more than an act of desperation and attempted intimidation. We encourage others who may have been victimized to contact us as no survivor should suffer in silence.”
