Judge Dismisses Sexual Assault Lawsuit Against Aerosmith's Steven Tyler
A New York judge has dismissed a former teen model's sexual assault lawsuit against Steven Tyler, citing that she waited too long to file under the Gender Motivated Violence Act. The alleged assault occurred in 1975 when the model was 17 and Tyler was 27, and the judge ruled that her claims did not qualify under the act due to the time elapsed and the lack of serious risk of physical injury. The judge granted the model's ability to amend her complaint, and this dismissal follows another lawsuit filed by a different woman accusing Tyler of sexual assault in the '70s.
