Jamie Foxx and Axl Rose Named in Sexual Assault Lawsuits: Actress Sheila Kennedy and Jane Doe Accuse Celebrities of Non-consensual Acts

Accident – Death – Obituary News : Renowned American actor Jamie Foxx and Axl Rose, the frontman of Guns N’ Roses, have found themselves embroiled in sexual assault allegations. Lawsuits were filed against them on Wednesday in New York, just before the expiration of the statute of limitations.

One of the accusers, Sheila Kennedy, an actress and model, has accused Axl Rose of sexually assaulting her in 1989. Kennedy claims that she did not consent to the assault and felt overpowered. The legal filing is made under the New York Adult Survivors Act, which allows sexual assault cases that occurred too long ago to be litigated.

In the case against Jamie Foxx, the accuser, identified as Jane Doe, alleges that Foxx intentionally and without consent used force to offensively touch her at a Manhattan rooftop bar in 2015. The filing is also presented under the New York Adult Survivors Act.

Both lawsuits are seeking jury trials and punitive damages. The complaint against Axl Rose alleges forced anal sex, with Kennedy’s lawyers stating that she feared physical harm if she resisted. The complaint further claims that Rose abused his celebrity status and power to manipulate, control, and violently assault Kennedy.

Axl Rose, the 61-year-old lead singer of Guns N’ Roses, has not yet publicly commented on the allegations. The incident is said to have occurred in a New York hotel room after the two met in a nightclub.

In the Jamie Foxx case, the accuser claimed that she would be permanently affected by the injuries and emotional distress resulting from the alleged assault. Foxx, a versatile entertainer who has excelled in acting, comedy, and music, including winning an Academy Award for his role in “Ray,” now faces a challenging legal battle.

These lawsuits come in the wake of a recent rape complaint filed under the Adult Survivors Act against rapper Sean Combs by R&B singer Cassie. However, despite the initial legal action, the parties involved in that case announced an agreement to resolve the matter, with settlement terms remaining undisclosed..
