Gloria Trevi Files Lawsuit Against Former Manager Sergio Andrade Alleging Abuse
The lawsuit serves as a counterclaim to a previous complaint filed by two Jane Does, with Trevi alleging she was also a victim of Andrade's abuse.
- Mexican pop star Gloria Trevi has filed a lawsuit against her former manager and music producer Sergio Andrade, alleging he subjected her to 'total control and sadistic abuse' in the late 1980s and 1990s.
- The lawsuit serves as a counter-lawsuit to a complaint filed by two Jane Does who sued Trevi and Andrade last year for 'grooming' and 'exploiting' them when they were minors.
- Trevi alleges that Andrade took advantage of his position as a successful music executive to draw young girls into his sphere of influence, promising them stardom, only to subject them to abuse.
- The abuse allegedly included beatings, sexual assault, and financial control, leading Trevi to attempt suicide.
- Trevi and Andrade were previously arrested in 2000 for allegedly luring young girls into a cult-like pornographic ring, but Trevi was acquitted of all charges in 2004.
