SEXUAL ASSAULT

L.A. Chargers Star Sebastian Joseph-Day Accuses TSA of Sexual Assault

by

Attention is drawn to the Transportation Security Administration today (March 27) after Sebastian Joseph-Day made scathing accusations. The Los Angeles Chargers defensive tackle took to his Twitter account to pen a lengthy thread about his alleged experience at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, Calif. “I really just got sexually assaulted by TSA at @JohnWayneAir,” said Joseph-Day. “After I asked the gentleman to please stop BC I’m uncomfortable and I feel that this part of the check is unnecessary (After he felt what was needed). Then they told me I was the problem after 3 TSA agents swarmed me.”

The football star further added, “I’m all for people doing their job well. But it was extremely unnecessary and dehumanizing. I travel a lot, for personal and work reasons. I’ve never experienced anything like that @JohnWayneAir.” Additionally, Joseph-Day said he had to “jump through hoops” just to file a complaint. He also addressed critics who called him out for making his story public. For the 28-year-old, it was important that the TSA agent who allegedly assaulted him be disciplined.

Unsurprisingly, debates erupted on social media. TSA defenders made excuses for the administration, alleging that Joseph-Day must have exhibited behaviors that prompted probable cause. However, they were fiercely met with pushback from people who argued that TSA has long abused its authority. Meanwhile, the Chargers star didn’t share any further details about his experience. The status of the investigation is unclear—and brand new—so there hasn’t been much else revealed. However, the Transportation Security Administration released a statement to The Hill acknowledging the accusation.

“TSA is aware of allegations made by a traveler who was screened by TSA officers at John Wayne Orange County Airport Friday morning,” the statement reportedly reads. “We are looking into the matter to determine if our procedures were followed and whether any corrective action needs to be taken.” Joseph-Day has continued to defend himself on social media. He’s unwavered by critics and even dropped off definitions of sexual assault for naysayers. Read through Sebastian Joseph-Day’s tweets above.

Tiger Woods’ Ex-GF Seemingly Accuses Him Of Sexual Assault

by

Tiger Woods could potentially be at the center of a legal battle very soon, according to TMZ Sports. This is because his former girlfriend of six years is trying to take him to court. Although there are no confirmed reports of a breakup, it seems like Tiger and Erica Herman are no longer together. Overall, this seems obvious now as Herman wants to have her Non-Disclosure Agreement thrown out. As Herman claims, Tiger made her sign one in 2017 when they started dating.

Moreover, Herman feels like Woods and his legal team is intimidating her into keeping quiet about their relationship. Interestingly enough, in documents filed to the court, Herman claims the NDA should become invalid. This is due to a federal law called the Speak Out Act. Ultimately, this law was made to protect victims of alleged sexual harassment and abuse. Simply put, if there is evidence of sexual abuse within a relationship, then an NDA is immediately thrown out.

Tiger Woods Headed To Court

So far, there are no specifics on the alleged abuse that Herman may have faced. However, based on these court filings, her insinuations are extremely clear. In order for a judge to throw out the NDA, they will need clear-cut evidence that there was foul play here. Otherwise, Woods’ NDA will stand up in court. Overall, this is a very troubling situation that has many asking questions about Woods. If the NDA is subsequently thrown out, then exact details of Woods’ alleged abuse would probably immediately follow suit.

For now, this is simply a developing story that we will be keeping a close eye on. Tiger Woods is one of the biggest athletes in the world, and there is no doubt that people are shocked by this latest report. Let us know what you think about all this, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.

Marilyn Manson Ex-Accuser Recants Allegations, Claims Rachel Evan Woods “Manipulated” Her

by

CW: This article contains details of sexual assault that some may find disturbing or triggering.

Several women emerged with horrendous allegations against Marilyn Manson over the years, accusing him of sexual abuse. 38-year-old Ashley Morgan Smithline claimed that she endured years of abuse during her relationship with Marilyn Manson. Her allegations emerged at a time when a number of women, including Manson’s ex Evan Rachel Woods, shared similar stories. Smithline filed a lawsuit, which was later dismissed, where she detailed her relationship with the singer.

Smithline, who is Jewish, alleged Manson raped her and cut her with a knife that had a Swastika symbol. Along with the numerous other allegations against Manson, he ultimately became a pariah in the music industry. However, it appears that Smithline’s claims weren’t true, to begin with. She recently retracted her comments, accusing Wood and her associates of manipulating her into suing the rockstar.

Smithline Retracts Statements Against Marilyn Manson

In a recent declaration obtained by PageSix, Smithline said that the allegations she made against Manson were “not true.” She said that other alleged victims of Manson invited her to group meetings where they asked if she had been “whipped, chained, tied up, branded, cut, assaulted while sleeping, beaten, or raped” by the singer. “No, this did not happen to me, and this was not my experience,” she reportedly responded.

However, the other women in these meetings, including Wood, suggested that she may have been suppressing the trauma. “While at first I knew Mr. Warner did not do these things to me, I eventually I began to question whether he actually did,” Smithline said. “I was asked whether [I] was repressing memories to just get through day-to-day life, and whether it was easier just to not think about what actually happened than accept reality. They also said it was important for people to come forward so that no one else gets hurt.”

She said Wood’s girlfriend, Illma Gore, drafted the statement she shared on Instagram where she named Manson as her abuser. In her declaration, she said that her statement “contained untrue statements about Mr. Warner” including violence and sexual assault claims. Though many were weary of the retraction, she said, “I never received any money from Mr. Warner and am not seeking any money from him.” She added that she won’t refile her lawsuit, either.

The Game’s Sexual Assault Accuser Goes After UMG

by

The Game’s sexual assault accuser, Priscilla Rainey, is now targeting the rapper’s label, Universal Music Group. She previously won a $7.1 million judgment against Game, but claims he only paid $383,502.39 of the royalties he owes. Rainey is hoping that UMG will help her receive the rest.

“Rainey respectfully requests that a post-judgment writ of garnishment be issued commanding Universal Music-MBG NA LLC, the Garnishee named above, to answer the writ of garnishment according to law, along with such other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper,” court documents obtained by AllHipHop read.

Rainey alleges that The Game sexually assaulted her while she was a contestant on the reality show, She’s Got Game. When she made the accusation in 2015, she explained that she believed herself to be on a “required after-hours date”. The Game allegedly got drunk and forced “his hand inside her dress to rub her bare vagina and buttocks.”

In 2019, a judge granted Rainey $7.1 million in post-judgment interest. The Game was to fork over his royalties until reaching the figure.

More court documents read: “Any and all rights, title, and interest of Defendant from the following companies in the form of, among other things, commission, royalties, contract receivables, deferred compensation, income, wages, payroll, salary, and accounts receivable: Sound Exchange, Inc., 733 10th Street NW, 10th Floor, Washington, D.C. 20001; and Entertainment One U.S. LP, Attn: Michael Healy, 22 Harbor Park Drive, Port Washington, NY 11050.”

The Game has previously stated that he doesn’t intend to pay up while Rainey accuses him of trying to hide his money. Last year, Rainey claimed Game was hiding royalties from a collaboration with Kanye West.

George Foreman Hits Sexual Assault Accuser With Countersuit: Report

by

George Foreman is one of the most famous boxers of all time. He is beloved by many, however, that has somewhat changed over the past year or so. This is because Foreman has been accused of sexually assaulting a minor over 40 years ago.

Last summer, a woman going by the name of Gwen H. accused Foreman of coercing her into sexual acts. Another woman accused Foreman of the exact same thing. Gwen H. is currently in the midst of suing Foreman for $12 million, although the boxer is adamant that this is just some sort of extortion attempt.

George Foreman Responds

Prior to Gwen H. coming out with her story, Foreman tried to get ahead of things. In fact, he claimed he was being extorted way before the lawsuit was even filed. That being said, it was only a matter of time before he and his legal team came through with a strategy of their own.

According to TMZ, Foreman has officially launched a countersuit against his accuser. The lawsuit claims there is “zero corroborating evidence in the form of documents, photographs, letters, or witnesses to support Gwen’s false claims against Foreman.”

Moreover, the legendary boxer claims he has undergone severe emotional distress throughout all of this. “Anxiety, sleeplessness, worry, shock, and humiliation” are reportedly all things that Foreman has gone through over these past few months. At this time, the damages being sought are unknown. Additionally, his accuser has yet to give her reaction to the countersuit.

This is currently a developing story, so be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news regarding this lawsuit.

Kai Cenat Breaks Silence After TikTok Star Accuses His Friend Of Raping Her

by

Kai Cenat spoke out during a recent stream after a TikTok star’s allegations of sexual assault at his New Year’s Eve party.

Jovi Pena shared a statement on social media last week claiming that Cenat’s friend raped her. She explained that the Twitch streamer invited her to an NYE party. However, after having a few drinks, she said that she wanted to leave but the famed YouTuber advised her to go to a room upstairs where she could sleep unbothered.

Pena said Cenat’s friend, DJIGUI SECK, raped her while she was asleep. Later, she provided screenshots of text message exchanges with Cenat who appeared surprised that his friend assaulted Pena.

On Jan. 7th, Cenat addressed the allegations directly during his Twitch stream. While Pena described Cenat as a friend, he went on to explain that he only met her on Dec. 31st, 2022. He also said that he wasn’t intending on bashing her or the allegations in any form. He also addressed his relationship with SECK, who he said he’s known since high school.

For the most part, Kai didn’t publicly respond to the allegations until the stream. However, many fans were curious why he was silent about this matter. Some pointed out that he seemed to stop responding to Pina’s text but he explained that he went to his attorneys and authorities immediately.

“I went nowhere else but the police instantly,” he said. “I went to my legal team and I went to the police.” He added that his legal team advised him not to issue any text messages or public statements about the matter, though they gave him the “green light” to speak about it during the stream. From there, he addressed rumors that he “set-up” the assault on Pena.

“I’ve been accused of this being set up and I knew what was going on,” he continued. “Negative. Negative. That’s disgusting. That’s the reason why I’m kinda mad… I don’t know sh*t that went down that night.” 

Kai Cenat also said that he brought the matter up with his friend, who is accused of assaulting Pena. Cenat described Seck as being in “complete shock” about the matter.

Cenat also told his followers not to harass Pena or go on her social media accounts at this time.

We’ll keep you posted on anymore updates surrounding the case.

SSGKobe Denies Sexual Assault Allegations, Says He Was Raised To “Respect Women”

by

SSGKobe has denied sexually assaulting an artist named Ka$hkenni during a studio session, last month. The 19-year-old rapper released a statement responding to the accusations on social media.

“My parents raised me to respect women,” he wrote. “I practice this each and every day and will continue to live my life abiding by that. Unfortunately, a private matter of consensual sexual relations between two consenting adults has turned into a defamatory public matter against me.”

He continued: “The picture being painted is not based on facts. I apologize that my desire to not have a long term relationship with someone was not properly communicated by me, resulting in a false rehashing of events. I will leave this matter to be further addressed by my legal team.”

Ka$hkenni previously made the allegations on Instagram weeks ago. She claimed that SSGKobe coerced her into sex despite her attempts to say no.

“He gets up to go back into the recording room,” she wrote at the time. “I feel someone staring at me. I look over and he’s standing in the doorway of the room we are in giving me this very demanding and intimidating look. I’m still under the impression that he just wants to talk so I go into the recording room with him.”

“He proceeds to start trying to [take] advantage of me,” she continued. “He asked me to give him head. I told him ‘no I don’t do that, I don’t wanna do that.’ And I try and move around him in order to leave the room and he steps in front of me to block the door.”

She further recalled: “And proceeds to coerce me into doing things with him that I don’t want to do. He never asked for consent. And I was verbally telling him ‘No,’ ‘stop’ and ‘you’re hurting me.’ I was trying to push him off of me. But he ignore[d] all of that.”
