Judge Dismisses Steven Tyler Sexual Assault Suit


The suit was one of two currently pending against the Aerosmith frontman.

A lawsuit accusing Steven Tyler of sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl in 1975 was dismissed by a judge on Wednesday, Deadline reports. In the suit, which was filed in November, Jeanne Bellino alleges that the Aerosmith frontman, who was 27 at the time, sexually assaulted her twice when the pair met in 1975, first in a phone booth and then at the Warwick Hotel, by groping and forcibly kissing her. Bellino’s suit was brought under New York City’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act, which extended the statute of limitations for older cases.
