Overview
- Michelle Crosby filed a cross-complaint in Los Angeles alleging sexual battery, assault and stalking during her 2020–2024 relationship with Joe Carnahan.
- The filing describes a 2024 hotel incident and other episodes she characterizes as a pattern of physical violence.
- Crosby seeks unspecified damages plus at least $3 million for luxury items she says Carnahan took and alleges a broken promise to form a production company.
- Carnahan denies wrongdoing through a representative, calls the relationship consensual, cites a July 2025 dismissal, and says Crosby was twice arrested during the relationship.
- The cross-complaint responds to Carnahan’s suit over a borrowed Porsche, for which he seeks about $33,000, after Riverside County and the LAPD declined criminal cases for insufficient evidence.
