Tommy Lee Wins Round in Helicopter Sexual Assault Lawsuit
A lawyer for Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee says the Jane Doe can't prove a “coverup” after stating Lee’s “salacious” behavior was “known to everybody”
The judge said the Jane Doe plaintiff now has 20 days to try again with an amended complaint that will only survive if it includes new alleged facts showing there was “concerted effort” to conceal evidence the Mötley Crüe drummer sexually battered her in a helicopter cockpit in 2003. The judge sided with Lee after the rocker’s lawyer argued that the decades-old claims didn’t qualify for revival under the law the Jane Doe plaintiff used when she filed her original lawsuit last December.
