Crispin Glover, the actor known for his unforgettable roles in films like *River’s Edge* and *Back to the Future*, is now at the center of a deeply disturbing legal battle. A lawsuit filed in Los Angeles accuses the 61-year-old of holding a woman captive and subjecting her to abuse.
The alleged victim, identified in court documents as Jane Doe, claims she was lured from the United Kingdom with promises of work as Glover’s assistant and a place to live. The reality, she alleges, was a far cry from those assurances.
According to the lawsuit, Doe relocated to Los Angeles only to find herself trapped in a controlling and exploitative situation. She asserts Glover sought to dictate her movements, monitor her actions, and essentially treat her as a live-in girlfriend and, shockingly, a “sex slave.”
The legal complaint details a pattern of manipulation and control, alleging that Glover’s demands became increasingly bizarre and inappropriate. When Doe reportedly resisted his control, she claims she was unlawfully evicted from his home.
The accusations escalate further with claims of physical assault. Doe alleges that Glover attacked her when she attempted to retrieve her belongings and her beloved cats from the residence.
She describes a terrifying encounter where Glover allegedly grabbed her neck and choked her, leaving a visible wound and a lasting scar. Following the alleged assault, Doe claims Glover filed a false police report and fraudulently sought a restraining order against her.
The lawsuit contends that even after the alleged physical attack and the legal maneuvers, Glover continued to harass and pursue Doe sexually. The accusations paint a picture of relentless and disturbing behavior.
A representative for Glover vehemently denies the allegations, dismissing them as “baseless” and characterizing Doe as the aggressor. They claim Glover was the victim of an unprovoked felony assault on March 2, 2024.
According to the representative, Glover contacted the LAPD, who investigated the incident and subsequently arrested Doe. They point to law enforcement records and a restraining order filed by Glover against Doe as evidence supporting their account.
Glover’s representative stated he intends to vigorously defend himself against the lawsuit and pursue all available legal remedies, expressing confidence that the truth will ultimately be revealed through the judicial process. The case promises a contentious legal battle with starkly contrasting narratives.
