Overview

  • A woman filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court accusing Williamson of raping her twice in a Beverly Hills apartment in 2020 and of physical, emotional, and financial abuse from 2018 to 2023.
  • The complaint alleges incidents of domestic violence, stalking, sexual coercion, burglary, and false imprisonment across California, Louisiana, and Texas.
  • Williamson’s attorneys have dismissed the claims as “categorically false and reckless” and insist the relationship was casual and consensual.
  • The plaintiff is seeking damages for bodily harm, sexual violation, emotional distress, and related injuries.
  • Williamson’s legal team plans to countersue for extortion, arguing the lawsuit is a financially motivated attempt to exploit the NBA star.
