New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson has been accused of rape, domestic violence and a years-long pattern of abuse in a civil lawsuit filed Thursday in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
The plaintiff, identified in the complaint as Jane Doe, alleges the NBA star sexually assaulted her twice in 2020 at a home he rented in Beverly Hills and subjected her to repeated abuse until their relationship ended in 2023. The 12-page suit, obtained by the Guardian, lays out allegations of sexual battery, stalking, false imprisonment and physical assault spanning multiple states, including California, Louisiana, Texas and Oregon.
