The lawsuit, which claims defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress, says Wood publicly cast Manson “as a rapist and abuser.'
An HBO documentary on the allegations premieres March 15.
It alleged that Wood and Gore engaged in a conspiracy that “recruited, coordinated, and pressured prospective accusers to emerge simultaneously with allegations of rape and abuse against Warner, and brazenly claim that it took ten or more years to 'realize' their consensual relationships with Warner were supposedly abusive.”
It alleges they provided checklists and scripts to prospective accusers, describing claims to make and how to make them.It also alleges the women hacked Manson's email, phone and social media accounts, created a phony email to manufacture evidence that he was emailing illegal pornography, and “swatted” him, using a prank call to send authorities to his home and draw further attention to the allegations.
“This detailed complaint has been filed to stop a campaign of malicious and unjustified attacks on Brian Warner," Manson's attorney Howard King said in a statement.
