Marilyn Manson accuses ex Evan Rachel Wood of fraud, conspiracy in wild lawsuit

LOS ANGELES — Embattled rocker Marilyn Manson has fired back at his ex-fiancee Evan Rachel Wood in court, claiming that she and her partner resorted to fraud, conspiracy and defamation to torpedo his career.

Manson, 53, accused “Westworld” actor and artist Illma Gore of hatching plans to manufacture sexual abuse allegations against him and to profit from them, as well as hacking into his computers and social media and impersonating an FBI agent in the process, according to a copy of the complaint obtained Wednesday by the Los Angeles Times.

The complaint, which is being filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, accuses Wood and Gore of intentional infliction of emotional distress, defamation, violation of the Comprehensive Computer Data Access and Fraud Act and impersonation over the internet.
