[TMZ] A California woman claims a man living in L.A. “leveraged his power” over her while she worked for him, raped her… and exposed her to HIV, and TMZ has learned the man is a big celebrity.
According to the new suit … the woman, listed as Jane Doe, is suing a man listed as David Doe for sexual battery and assault. Sources connected with the case tell us the man is definitely a celebrity but wouldn’t be more specific.
She says she worked as a part-time personal assistant for the man. She says she was a vulnerable single mother and he mistreated her both physically and sexually.
Jane Doe claims the man made her engage in unwanted rough sex, ignored her requests to stop, and belittled her by laughing at her protestations and spitting on her. She also says he threatened to anally rape her … all while she worked for him.
To make things worse, according to the docs, the man refused to use a condom and exposed her to HIV because one of his recent sexual partners allegedly tested positive. Jane Doe claims he told her she should get tested.
The woman’s suing for unspecified damages.
BG Note: If you are the victim of a sexual assault, please call RAINN.org ‘s National Sexual Assault Hotline at (800)656-HOPE (4673) to be connected with a trained staff member in your local area.

Fiona Apple (the pic) dated David Blane, so I’ll say him! “ David Doe” cannot be a coincidence either!
GretaGuesses says
The blind doesn’t say that the celebrity has HIV, it says he slept with someone who tested positive, then told the woman he assaulted that she should get tested. I say that because Charlie Sheen is the obvious answer, but everyone knows he has HIV, so he probably wouldn’t be a John Doe in a court filing.
Yes, I was assaulted sexually by a doctor I worked for in my 20s. More than once. I was young and terrified, and thought I needed that job. I quit the job. ??
BlackRose says
I’m gonna have to say… L.A. Reid.
rescuesu says
I hope he gets exposed. who ever he is needs to be in jail!
hvp5ss says
I am stuck on Fiona Apple here. Gotta be a clue. Maybe it’s for her song “Shadowboxer”, and the guy is a boxer? I don’t know any boxers.
Mike Tyson?
Or just someone punchy?
Sean Penn?
Or the David Blaine guesses seem reasonable. Personally, I’m liking Russell Simmons, due to timing. I think he resigned to get ahead of a big story.

I feel this is David Blaine, which would be so disappointing : (((

l.a reid? just because “L.A.” kept standing out to me…

Gotta be Mr. Tiger Blood himself, Charlie Sheen.
I’ve been verbally harassed before. I just threw it right back at them. Sure it earned me a reputation as a b*tch but no one bothered me again.

David Blaine? This pic of Fiona Apple is making me think of him because for one they dated….secondly, she mentioned she used to be covered in bruises when they dated because he liked “it rough”. It sounds like something he would do if he has this dark side. The HIV is throwing me off, though. I am not certain if this information has been made public if it is him.
sweetnews says
OH! and I left out…. “leveraged his power” – magic.
thisisannoying says
I don’t have any guesses, was just wondering why the blind said David Doe instead of John Doe – surely a clue?

David Blaine
(optional) Thankfully, never in the workplace.
Sharper_Teeth says
wait, I think David Blaine lives in NY
AmandaHugginkiss says
My first thought was Charlie (Sheen) Esteves but he’s already known to have HIV so why keep the name a secret? Must be someone else. ?
spankys60 says
Charlie Sheen. We already know he’s a child rapist, and we know he has HIV so…
micmac says
carey?
aaaSarri says
I only know that Charlie Sheen has HIV… but that doesn’t mean it was him.
Who knows what kind of secrets all these celebs have?
spoofbyrd says
Sounds like Charlie Sheen ! He shouldn’t just be sued ! He should also be brought up on criminal charges !
luvprue1 says
If it was Charlie Sheen the accused would have came out a long time ago. Plus everyone know he have HIV. So the media would have posted that Charlie was being sued.
pancakephanny says
Charlie Sheen?

Mr. Tiger Blood. Charlie Sheen!
Just a guess tho!

“Goodtime Charlie” Sheen. I believe it, too. God knows what he (allegedly) did to Corey Haim or exposed him to.
Yep. 1st time it happened, the guy was a complete jerk.
I reported him to HR. They asked if I wanted him fired; I said no. So what does he do? Continues to be a jerk, minus the sex harassment. Men like him DO NOT LIKE WOMEN. 2nd time it happened it was a guy who just didn’t annoy me. Plus he may have been just fake flirting as he was married so I ignored it.
Parade says
Charlie Sheen isn’t a big time star anymore and there’s no reason to keep his name censored, we all know what he was all about. Don’t think this is Charlie, I’m thinking Johnny Depp.

Harvey. This guy needs to be put down like a rabid dog.
Was propositioned once by the owner of a store I worked at but he took no for an answer and that was that. I’m a whole lot more fortunate than some women.

I agree with Russell Simons. It was in the news that he is being sued by a woman over sexual harassment charges.

Looks like Fiona Apple which could just be a nod toward the victim feeling vulnerable. If it is a legit clue then maybe Paul Thomas Anderson.

Also noted the Apple likeness, which brought to mind David Blaine.

Since “HIV exposure” was listed, I’m going with Charlie Sheen.

Charlie Sheen?
Optional: Yes. An owner once made an “educated” guess as to which way my nipples pointed. Being we didn’t have an HR department, my complaint to management fell on deaf ears. I worked there for one more year until I confronted every man that worked there about their consistent sexual harassment. It wasn’t until the Weinstein revelation that the company finally addressed S.H in the workplace. The building we all worked in burned down two weeks later. So, some karma served.

I was being verbally harassed. I went to my supervisor. He told me to confront my harasser and tell them that I am uncomfortable with the way they speak to me (wtf?) I refused to do that and the abuse continued. Finally, in a breach of workplace protocol, I went over his head to HR and filed a complaint against both of them. The harasser was reassigned and my supervisor was reprimanded.

traherne says
Not sure why so many people are guessing Sheen. If it was him, the BI would mention he’s HIV+ instead of talking about one of his partners testing positive.
Deusex says
Not so sure, everyone knows Sheen is positive. Sounds like someone new, unless it’s an old incident.
chicagofix says
I thank this woman for having the courage to bring this to a court of law and possibly stop this disgusting man from hurting other people. Knowingly exposing someone to a potentially deadly illness should be right up there with 1st degree murder. Castrate him. That should slow him down at least.
amagod121 says
Thank you, chicagofix! 🙂
itstarapagain says
I could not agree more. I hope she gets the justice she deserves. He needs to be named and shamed. By knowingly exposing this single mom to HIV, he is also putting the child at risk of becoming an orphan.
Brunettetalk says
Yes!
