World-renowned and Nobel-winning folk singer and songwriter Bob Dylan has been accused of sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl in 1965. Allegedly giving the now 68-year-old woman drugs and alcohol before the abuse, which took place over the course of six weeks in April and May 1965. This would have made Dylan around 23 to 24 years old, with the suit being filed late Friday on behalf of ‘JC’.
The suit alleges how Dylan abused the plaintiff multiple times, with some incidents occurring at the Chelsea hotel in Manhattan. A spokesman for the singer, who is now 80-years-old, told the Guardian that the claim is untrue and will be vigorously defended. JC is seeking unspecified damages and a. Jury trial for allegations of assault, battery, false imprisonment and infliction of emotional distress whose aftermath led her to seek medical treatment.
