Marilyn Manson sexual assault lawsuit filed by former assistant revived

Marilyn Manson‘s former assistant has been revived following a ruling by an appeals court.It comes after the case was originally dismissed last year when a judge ruled that Ashley Walters had waited too long to bring her case, ruling that such cases needed to be filed within two years of the alleged crimes.Walters’ initial suit against the vocalist, whose real name is Brian Warner, alleged sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual harassment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress, among other claims during the time she worked for him from 2010 to 2011. She had initially named Warner’s label, Marilyn Manson Records, Inc., as a co-defendant.Yesterday (December 13), a California’s Second Appellate District said Walters’ case was fair game under the so-called delayed discovery rule, as she claims the trauma of the incidents caused her to suppress the memories until 2020.“Until she received diagnosis and treatment, Walters [says she] was unable to remember the repressed events, and once she did recall them, she was unable to immediately identify these events as abuse,” according to the court [via Billboard].
