The Usual Suspects, X-Men and Superman Returns director stands accused of forcibly sodomising a seventeen-year-old, “among other allegations” that involve Singer providing the teenager “with drugs and alcohol [flying] him to Hawaii on more than one occasion in 1999.”
Singer has also been named alongside registered sex offender and former chairman of the Digital Entertainment Network Marc Collins-Rector in the lawsuit, which according to the plaintiff’s lawyer, “is the first of many cases I will be filing to give these victims a voice and to expose the issue.”
More to come.
