It also alleges that Wood and Gore "provided checklists and scripts" to accusers and "made knowingly false statements," including that Manson "filmed the sexual assault of a minor." Manson has requested a jury trial and is also alleging intentional infliction of emotional distress, violation of the Comprehensive Computer Data and Access Fraud Act and impersonation over the internet.
