New York City prosecutors have filed two more sex abuse charges against Oscar-winner Cuba Gooding Jr. They have a third accuser now, and apparently have enough evidence to support the indictment. We don’t know who this accuser is, but the new charges mirror the counts Cuba’s already fighting… one count of forcible touching and one count of sexual abuse in the third degree.
Though the fire is getting hot, Cuba’s attorney Mark Heller is cool as a cucumber saying…
“The new accuser is just one more splinter that comes out of the woodwork when a celebrity is criminally charged. But none of the splinters will form a plank leading to his conviction because he has not committed any crime.”
If you’re counting, that brings us to a grand total of six counts against the Boyz N The Hood star. You’ll remember the first charges stemmed from a woman swearing Cuba touched her breasts at Majic Hour Rooftop Bar & Lounge in New York City. The incident was mostly caught on camera and first obtained by TMZ. While there was some touching, it still seemed hard to tell if Cuba actually touched her breasts. Also, Cuba’s girlfriend at the time was over his shoulder the whole time.
The second accuser was a server at TAO Nightclub, also in New York, back in 2018. She says Cuba Gooding Jr. definitely grabbed her butt after making sexually suggestive jokes. She claims the whole incident was caught on tape from several angles, but we’ve yet to see the evidence of that. She also claims they had to kick Cuba out of the spot that night after 4 AM, drunk and indignant.
