Marilyn Manson allegedly groomed and repeatedly sexually assaulted a 16-year-old girl in the ’90s, according to a new bombshell lawsuit.
The shock rocker allegedly first attacked the girl — named as Jane Doe in the suit, filed Monday in Nassau County Supreme Court and seen by Page Six — after inviting her on his tour bus following a Dallas show in September 1995 and then threatened that “if she told anyone, he would kill her and her family.”
The filing alleges that Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, “within weeks” began calling the girl and asking her “to send explicit sexual photos of her and her friends to his fan club, Satan’s Bakesale.”
Manson, now 54, then invited her to a December 1995 show in New Orleans, where, the lawsuit claims, he took her back on his tour bus and “became more aggressive and again sexually assaulted [her], including kissing, biting her breast, oral copulation and penetration.”
On both occasions, there were allegedly other members of Manson’s entourage on the bus.
The victim alleges that she then became addicted to drugs and alcohol and was “lured into [Manson’s] dark world of drugs, alcohol, sexual deviance, harassment, abuse and assault.”
Then in 1999, when she was 19, she was invited on tour with Manson, where he “continued to groom and sexually assault [her] for the next 4 weeks,” the suit claims, adding, “[Manson] often coerced Plaintiff to have sex with him and other band members or his assistant at the same time. [Manson] controlled what Plaintiff could do, who could touch Plaintiff, and who he wanted Plaintiff to be with sexually, all while providing Plaintiff with drugs.”
The lawsuit also names Manson’s labels, Interscope and Nothing Records, claiming they “knew or should have known that [Manson] had a history of giving drugs to female fans he allowed backstage, onto the bus and in hotel rooms, and sexually assaulting minors and women.”
It adds that the labels knew the performer was inviting minors onto his bus after shows and “were well-aware of [his] obsession with sexual violence and childhood sexual assault.”
