Ann Altman filed a lawsuit alleging her brother sexually abused her between 1997 and 2006.
Ms Altman claims her brother "groomed and manipulated" her and performed sex acts on her over several years, including "rape, sexual assault, molestation, sodomy, and battery", according to a court filing seen by the BBC.
Ms Altman said she sustained "great bodily injury", severe emotional distress and depression.
She added that she had incurred numerous medical bills because of medical and mental health treatment for her injuries.
In the UK, victims or alleged victims of sexual offences have a right to lifelong anonymity. The UK legislation which creates this right does not apply to people in the US.
Ahh the usa. Where if you are at the mercy of the courts who descided that multible federal offenses and attempted coup are A-OK since you can't prosecute someone in power.
Everyone is entitled to the presumption of innocence.
That being said, his personality is absolutely of the type I can see do this. Total narcissist, the entire world is in service of their whims, etc.
There is no "this is the evil type", random everyone does sexual violence. The Gisèle Pelicot case is the latest example that makes this perfectly clear, where their fucking wives STILL say "no way he xould do that" despite the fucking video of hin showing him do it! The statistics of decades are absolutely clear about this. It is the random normal person that is close to the victim (family etc. in 9 out of 10 cases) does this shit.

I did not know that.
Mr Altman said he gives his sister monthly financial support, pays her bills and rent, and offered to buy her a house, but that she "continues to demand more money from us".

Yeah, I would have believed it ten years ago. Now we have national proof that people are fighting to have criminals and charlatans in office. It doesn't matter what these people do as long as the money is backing them up.
