Vin Diesel Accused of S*xual Allegations by Former Assistant, Faces Legal Challenge – Deets Inside
Vin Diesel, renowned Hollywood action hero and star of the Fast & Furious franchise, is now entangled in a legal battle as his former assistant, Asta Jonasson, accuses him of sexual battery. The explicit details of the lawsuit shed light on the alleged incidents.
The lawsuit, filed by Asta Jonasson in a Los Angeles court, points to an incident in an Atlanta hotel room during the filming of ‘Fast Five’ in 2010. According to the lawsuit, after a night involving Vin Diesel and multiple women, the actor forcibly groped Jonasson’s breasts and kissed her. Further accusations claim that Diesel compelled Jonasson to touch his erect penis, and when she protested, he pinned her against the wall and masturbated. Jonasson states that she was fired a few hours after the incident.
For years, Jonasson remained silent, fearing repercussions and ostracization from the industry. The lawsuit notes, “Vin Diesel ignored Ms. Jonasson’s clear statements of non-consent to his sexual assaults.” Asta’s lawyer, Claire-Lisa Kutlay, hopes that her client’s bravery will empower other survivors.
Vin Diesel’s lawyer, Mark Sinclair, issued a statement to CNN, denying the accusations entirely. Sinclair claimed that this was the first time Diesel had heard about the more than 13-year-old claim by a supposed 9-day employee. The legal proceedings also involve accusations against Vin Diesel’s sister, Samantha Vincent, and his production company, One Race Films.
Vin Diesel, with an estimated net worth exceeding $200 million, recently starred in ‘Fast X,’ receiving acclaim from audiences. The legal challenge adds another layer to the actor’s public persona, and the case is unfolding in a Los Angeles court.
