Vin Diesel's Partner Feels Betrayed Amidst Surge of Sexual Assault Allegations

Vin Diesel, Tommy Lee, Jermaine Jackson, and other high-profile individuals have been sued for sexual abuse under California's Sexual Abuse and Cover Up Accountability Act, which allows victims to file claims past the statute of limitations. Vin Diesel's former assistant accused him of sexual battery, Tommy Lee was sued for gender violence and sexual assault, and Jermaine Jackson was accused of sexual assault with claims of a cover-up by Motown Records founder Berry Gordy. Nigel Lythgoe, producer of "American Idol," was also sued by Paula Abdul for alleged sexual assault. The law aims to provide victims with an opportunity to seek justice that may have been previously unavailable to them.
