I’ve worked incredibly hard to build my career, and I intend to mount a vigorous defense to her claims and take all other legal action necessary to protect my reputation.” He called those allegations “deeply troubling and hurtful,” stating, in part, “The simple fact is, her accusations are not only false, but also extremely damaging. Last month, Allen denied wrongdoing in response to the first sexual assault lawsuit against him, acknowledging a sexual relationship, but claiming it was consensual. “Extremely upset by the assault, Jane Doe 2 was leaving the hotel room when she discovered that Allen had surreptitiously and, without her consent, placed his cell phone in the closet facing the bed and had been videotaping the entire event.”Īllen’s attorney did not immediately respond to Variety for comment. “Allen sexually assaulted Jane Doe 2 in his hotel room and then passed out,” the lawsuit reads. Investigation aside, Jane Doe is suing Allen for battery, assault, invasion of privacy and emotional distress. Jane Doe’s attorney, Elizabeth Fegan of the Chicago-based firm FeganScott, tells Variety that detectives have contacted her client, and that she is waiting for the police department to fulfill her records request regarding the investigation. She took the phone, left the hotel room and flew home by herself where she turned the phone into the authorities and filed a police report. After two months of constant, long-distance conversation, they agreed to meet in Las Vegas where, according to the lawsuit, she was sexually assaulted.ĭuring this alleged assault in Las Vegas, the suit states that Jane Doe noticed Allen’s phone hidden in the hotel room closet that had been recording their sexual interaction without her awareness. In the new lawsuit, obtained by Variety, the woman - who is identified as “Jane Doe 2” – alleges that she was randomly approached by Allen on a plane last year, and after that first meeting, the country singer pursued her and engaged in daily communication over the phone. Those accusations, first reported by Variety, resulted in Allen being dropped by his publicist and suspended by his label, agency and management. The new lawsuit, filed Friday in Tennessee federal court, comes less than one month after Allen was accused of rape and repeated sexual abuse by a woman who worked on his former management team. This is the second woman to come forward publicly with sexual assault allegations against the Grammy-nominated country singer. Country star Jimmie Allen is being sued for sexual assault by a new accuser, who claims she filed a police report after Allen secretly filmed her during sex.
