Marilyn Manson's sexual assault case by former assistant reinstated under new California law A previously dismissed sexual assault case against Marilyn Manson, filed by former assistant Ashley Walters, was revived Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court under a new California law extending the statute of limitations for certain sexual abuse claims. Judge Steve Cochran granted Walters’ motion for reconsideration, vacating his December 2025 ruling that had dismissed the case and allowing it to proceed toward trial. The original suit, first filed in 2021, accused Manson, whose legal name is Brian Warner, of sexual harassment, sexual battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and wrongful termination based on her time working for him in 2010–2011. Previous attempts to move the case forward were blocked because the claims were made years after the alleged incidents, with courts initially ruling that the delayed discovery doctrine did not apply.

 Vin Diesel expected to prevail in sexual battery lawsuit filed by former assistant

A California Superior Court judge indicated Tuesday that Vin Diesel is likely to win a lawsuit filed by a former assistant who alleges the actor sexually assaulted her in 2010.

In a tentative ruling, Judge Daniel Crowley said the alleged incident took place in Georgia, meaning the plaintiff, Asta Jonasson, cannot pursue the case in California. Jonasson, who worked for Diesel while he was filming Fast Five, claimed in her complaint that Diesel assaulted her in a hotel suite in Atlanta and that she was subsequently fired hours later by Diesel’s sister, who ran his production company.

Jonasson’s 2023 lawsuit accused Diesel of sexual battery, wrongful termination, and violations of California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act. The FEHA claims were previously dismissed in June due to the one-year statute of limitations. Crowley questioned why Jonasson filed in California rather than Georgia, citing the “presumption of extraterritoriality” in his tentative ruling.

Jonasson’s attorney argued there were multiple connections to California, including her residence, Diesel’s residence, and the production company, while Diesel’s attorney contended the alleged crime occurred entirely out of state and should be governed by Georgia law. Crowley said he would issue a final ruling within a week.

Jonasson’s team said they may appeal depending on the court’s decision, while Diesel’s attorneys expressed optimism about concluding the case.
