The Fast and the Furious director Rob Cohen has been accused of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman, months after his daughter alleged that he molested her when she was a child, Independent reports.
According to the alleged victim, given the name “Jane” in a report in the Huffington Post to protect her anonymity, Cohen allegedly assaulted her in 2015 when she was unconscious.
The alleged assault took place after Cohen invited Jane to a business meeting in Manhattan to discuss working together on a TV pilot.
According to the Huffington Post, Jane said she felt “fuzzy” after dinner but went with Cohen to another bar because she “was excited about the career opportunity”. The next thing she recalls is waking up naked with Cohen’s “face in her crotch and his fingers inside her”.
This new allegation comes after Cohen’s daughter Valkyrie Weather accused her father of sexual assault in February. Cohen has denied Weather’s accusation and her claims that he took her to see sex workers in Thailand and the Czech Republic when she was a teenager.
In a statement from Cohen obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, the director denied the claims of sexual assault, saying: “I have never assaulted, raped, drugged or molested anyone. I have never belonged to any cigar club, and certainly was never there with ‘Jane’. (Out of restraint, I won’t reveal her real name).
