Adult film star Ron Jeremy has been accused of 20 new sexual assault charges by more than a dozen women, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
The 67-year-old porn star has been accused of misconduct by 13 women, Page Six first reported. Jeremy has been charged with six counts of sexual battery, five counts of forcible rape, three counts of forcible oral copulation, and two counts of forcible penetration by a foreign object.
Other charges that have been pressed against Jeremy included one count each of sodomy, assault with intent to commit rape, penetration by a foreign object on an unconscious or sleeping victim, and obscene conduct with a 15-year-old girl.
The DA’s officer also shared that the new charges span over 16 years, and involved victims age between 15 and 54 when the alleged assaults took place.
“The new charges span a 16-year period and the victims’ ages range from 15 to 54,” Page Six quoted the statement from the District Attorney’s office.
The DA’s office also gave details on when the incidents occurred. The porn star allegedly sexually abused a 15-year-old girl in 2005 at a party that took place in Santa Clarita. Meanwhile, seven of the new alleged incidents happened at a bar in West Hollywood.
According to the prosecutors, the most recent episode happened in January of this year. The court papers showed that Jeremy allegedly ambushed a 21-year-old woman in Hollywood.
Jeremy has already denied the new allegations leveled against him, The Hollywood Reporter said.
With the new charges, Jeremy now faces a total of 28 counts, including sexual battery by restraint, forcible rape, and forcible penetration by a foreign object.
In June, Jeremy was charged by LA prosecutors for allegedly raping three women and sexually assaulting another. He allegedly raped a 25-year-old woman at a house in West Hollywood in 2014. He was also accused of sexually assaulting two women, aged 33 and 46, in separate incidents at a West Hollywood bar in 2017. He is currently in jail in lieu of $6.6-million bail after pleading not guilty to assault charges.
If the porn star is found guilty of all the charges, he is facing a sentence of up to 250 years in prison.
