Marilyn Manson SUES Evan Rachel Wood 🔥 Lawsuit Explained

Rocker Marilyn Manson sued his former fiancee, “Westworld" actor Evan Rachel Wood, on Wednesday over her allegations that he sexually and physically abused her during their relationship.

The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court alleges that Wood's allegations were fabricated, and that she and another woman named as a defendant, Illma Gore, used false pretenses including a phony letter from the FBI to convince other women to come forward with sexual abuse allegations and coached them on what to say about Manson, whose legal name is Brian Warner.

The lawsuit, which claims defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress, says Wood publicly cast Manson “as a rapist and abuser — a malicious falsehood that has derailed Warner’s successful music, TV, and film career.”

Wood and Gore have not yet filed a response to the lawsuit.

In 2017, when the MeToo movement gained momentum, Wood said she had been raped and abused, and she gave testimony to a Congressional committee in 2018, both without naming anyone. Then in an Instagram post in February of 2020, Wood named Manson, saying he “horrifically abused me for years.”

Manson was dropped by his record label. Several other women came forward with similar allegations. At least three of them filed lawsuits. And police began an investigation of Manson.

An HBO documentary on the allegations premieres March 15.

The lawsuit filed Wednesday says that Wood had only glowing things to say about Manson during their relationship, and she said nothing of his abusing her for 10 years until she met Gore, an artist whom the lawsuit describes as Wood’s on-again, off-again romantic partner.

It alleged that Wood and Gore engaged in a conspiracy that “recruited, coordinated, and pressured prospective accusers to emerge simultaneously with allegations of rape and abuse against Warner, and brazenly claim that it took ten or more years to 'realize' their consensual relationships with Warner were supposedly abusive.”

The lawsuit says the women impersonated and forged a letter from a real FBI agent to create the false impression that women and their families were in danger from Manson, who was under federal investigation.

It alleges they provided checklists and scripts to prospective accusers, describing claims to make and how to make them.

Copies of the letter and the lists are included as exhibits in the lawsuit.

It also alleges the women hacked Manson's email, phone and social media accounts, created a phony email to manufacture evidence that he was emailing illegal pornography, and “swatted” him, using a prank call to send authorities to his home and draw further attention to the allegations.

“This detailed complaint has been filed to stop a campaign of malicious and unjustified attacks on Brian Warner," Manson's attorney Howard King said in a statement.

Wood has not taken legal action against Manson. “Game of Thrones” actor Esmé Bianco and Manson's former assistant Ashley Walters have sued him based on their sexual abuse allegations.

I want to hear from YOU whether you think Manson's case will be successful. Comment below with any evidence or witnesses you think could help or hurt his case.

[Xxelviroxx]

I hope Manson DESTROYS this pair of snakes in court. More women liek them should be punished for this crimes, sent to jail and made an exampe of. If we keep letting these people walk away without punishments it will keep happening. "believe women" was such a nossive thing to drill into people¡s head: this are the results. I really hope Manson wins this and sends Rachel and the other one to jail for a loooong time.

[rhondac]

Can you discuss the part about Illma and Rachel Evan Wood impersonating an FBI agent? Could they go to jail on that alone? or not because they are famous. I think of course this caused harm to Manson and his life and career. In the beginning I believed Wood, until I saw Esme Bianco, Ashley Walters and Ashley Smithline Morgan’s complaints. Now I feel sorry for Manson and I hope he brings suits against these women as well. And I feel sorry for normal men in this time. Took me 50 years of life to realize women can lie and fabricate these types of things. Had it not been for Esme Bianco and the Ashley’s I would still believe all women. I now realize Wood and Gore started a major hoax.

[LusciousTwinkle]

We need to really understand how bad this all is. Not only have they destroyed a man's life but they have actively made things a LOT worse for genuine victims, who have enough trouble being believed, and getting a conviction for their attacker. It's really DISGUSTING.

[PhenixJoe]

Just reinforces that the “just believe her” mentality is harmful. Every accusation needs to be investigated. There are plenty of manipulative, cunning women out there who will resort to this behavior.

[snowhitescrow]

He also lost out on film opportunities he guest starred in American gods and creepshow, both shows did not air the episodes that he appeared in

[haacon]

They are liars. A conspiracy.
We need a new Marilyn Manson album! The last one was great.

[KillerFknWolf]

what about the emotional distress of the fans? maybe sounds a bit silly, but people can identify greatly w/ artists they love, and i've seen comments from fans who have been very distressed because Manson's music has been a major aspect of them getting through some huge trauma in their life.

[leevincent]

They ruined his career they lied so much and defo should get done by fbi as well

[StinkyDustyBird]

Of course they caused him emotional distress, as a big fan of his, and knowing others, we’ve been so upset and confused. Imagine being him.

[Ka]

Manson is Innocent ... I knew this from the beginning. I never has stopped believing in him .

Of course he got emotional damage after all of this ... everyone would feel broken in this situation., he is a HUMAN to.

[tubadurantdoda]

When the allegations first came out, she kept throwing the Christmas night incident at everyone's face to make it look like she's the innocent, naive girl who's being abused, while in fact, on that Christmas night, Marilyn Manson cut himself many times to show her how much pain she put him through. Even though we can't say it's a sane thing to do, all I can say as a relatively good observer is that Marilyn Manson has been a self abuser and not a women abuser. Therefore, he actually abused himself at times because "she" was the one putting him through so much pain. Considering the fact that none of his other exes admitted to his abuse, ERW's claims were already weakened back before the lawsuit came out.

[natalie_rose]

Hell yes he's in the right. It says so in the filing. He gave a mound of evidence in it.

[grenade.turtle]

Manson is innocent. This really should have never become a thing. Just another case of some woman trying to gain attention and compensation

[darrenfreyauthor]

Isn't it convenient how none of this even started until Jessica from jack off Jill accused Twiggy, a man that she was ridiculously obsessed with, of doing the same thing, conveniently years after their relationship ended and right before a jack off Jill reunions tour kicked off?

[cerebrumexcrement]

ive seen some coverage on this but they were so ranty and one-sided as if filing the lawsuit is already a win. thanks for explaining the lawsuit so succintly without bias.

[ichiban]

Not a huge fan of his music but was interested in this case. When I heard what he was being accused of I did some digging to see who these women are and if people that knew him were speaking out ( something people should do more often instead of immediately assuming he's guilty ) the people that worked for him and were close to him all vouched for him. This reminds me alot of the Johnny Depp case. It's sad to see. I can't understand how these women sleep at night while accusing this man of things like r*pe, absolutely deplorable. Cases like this ruin it for real victims out there, disgusting.

[freeangel]

It's incredibly wrong to make false sexual abuse accusations toward anyone! A mandatory prison sentence should be a requirement for untrue accusations!

[neilboucher]

Will Evan Wood be insta canceled now that Manson is accusing them?

[janeknevermind]

If you want to know more about the case go to Colonel Kurtz' youtube channel she made so many interviews and analysis about this case! I recommend her videos to anybody who wants to know more. :)
