Marilyn Manson’s rape accuser’s lawsuit dismissed after judge rules the statute of limitations has passed
MARILYN Manson's rape accuser has had her lawsuit against the singer dismissed in court.
A judge ruled on Tuesday that the statute of limitations had passed on claims made by the woman, reported.
The 52-year-old rocker - real name Brian Warner - was sued in May by a woman who claimed they started dating in 2011 before things started spiraled and he raped her.
The accuser had claimed she repressed memories of the rape. The judge dismissed the suit because she couldn't explain how her memory was repressed, or why she didn't realize sooner.
The judge gave the woman 20 days to refile her complaint to address the concerns given by the judge about her repressed memories and the statute of limitations.
