The Most Shocking Allegations Against Garth Brooks in Sexual Assault Trial

Garth Brooks has been accused of sexual assault and battery and the lawsuit includes shocking claims.

News broke on Thursday, October 3, that Brooks, 62, had been named in documents filed by a “Jane Roe.” The lawsuit accused the country superstar of raping a woman who worked as a hair and makeup artist for him and his wife, Trisha Yearwood. According to documents obtained by CNNThe alleged incidents occurred in 2019, and Brooks had previously attempted to prevent the allegations from being made public.

A Roe lawyer said CNN in a statement that Brooks’ alleged “efforts to silence our client by filing a preemptive lawsuit in Mississippi were nothing more than an act of desperation and attempted intimidation.”

The statement continued: “We are confident that Brooks will be held accountable for his actions. We applaud our client’s courage in moving forward with her complaint against Garth Brooks. The complaint filed today demonstrates that sexual predators exist not only in corporate America, in Hollywood and in the rap and rock and roll industries, but also in the world of country music.

Brooks’ legal team responded to the allegations when he previously tried to stop Roe from repeating his allegations anonymously.

“Defendant’s allegations are not true,” his filing asserts. “The Defendant is, however, well aware of the substantial and irreparable harm that such false allegations would cause to the Plaintiff’s well-deserved reputation as a decent and caring person, as well as the inevitable harm to his family and the irreparable harm to his career and to her livelihood this would happen if she followed through on her threat to “publicly file” her fabricated lawsuit.

Court documents claimed that Jane Roe began doing Brooks’ hair and providing makeup services to him starting in 2017. She previously worked for his wife starting in 1999.

Brooks and Yearwood, 60, met in the 1980s but didn’t start dating until 2000. (He was married to his ex-wife Sandy Mahl until their separation in 1999 and their divorce two years later.)

The alleged assault

Roe detailed a 2019 incident in which Brooks raped her in a hotel room during a work trip. She recalled that Brocks was recording a Grammys tribute performance, which is why he went to Los Angeles with her as an employee, but only booked one hotel room.

“Usually, there were others on board Brooks’ private jet, but this time Ms. Roe and Brooks were the only two passengers,” the filing claims. “Once in Los Angeles at the hotel, Ms. Roe could not believe that Brooks had booked a one-bedroom hotel suite and that she did not have a separate bedroom.”

Indecent exposure and groping

In addition to sexual assault and battery, the lawsuit accused Brooks of repeatedly exposing his genitals and buttocks to Jane Roe, and claimed he regularly changed his clothes in front of her.

The anonymous woman claimed an incident took place in 2019 while she was at Brooks’ home for work. He allegedly came out of the shower naked and “grabbed her hands and forced them” on his genitals while speaking to her in sexually explicit and vulgar language.

The so-called threesome fantasy

Roe claimed that after Brooks sexually assaulted her, he continued to talk about his sexual fantasies and physically groped her. The complaint alleged “repeated remarks” by Brooks about “having a threesome” with his wife.

Explicit texts

The documents also referenced sexually explicit text messages sent to Roe from Brooks in which he talked about sex and shared his sexual fantasies.

Attempts to prevent accusations from being made public

According to the filing, Brooks had previously tried to stop Roe from publicly repeating his allegations. He denied claims in a previous complaint he filed as “John Doe,” which put him on the list of anonymous celebrity plaintiffs.
