MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A woman from New Zealand has filed three civil lawsuits accusing best-selling British author Neil Gaiman of repeatedly sexually assaulting her while she was working as his family's babysitter and nanny.
Scarlett Pavlovich filed the lawsuits — one against Gaiman and his wife, Amanda Palmer, and two more against Palmer — in federal court in Wisconsin, Massachusetts and New York on Monday.
The Associated Press doesn’t identify people who say they have been sexually assaulted unless they publicly identify themselves. Pavlovich identified herself in an interview with New York Magazine, which published an article in January detailing allegations of assault, abuse and coercion leveled by eight women.
