Garth Brooks Names Accuser

Garth Brooks has named his sexual assault accuser and sued her for compensatory and punitive damages after alleging she tried to extort “millions” from him, Page Six reports.

The country singer, 62, filed the complaint on Tuesday with the District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi Northern Division, according to court documents obtained by Page Six Tuesday.

He named his accuser after attempting to keep their identities private with a previous court filing asking a judge to grant them a right to anonymity.

“When Jane Roe threatened to publish lies about him — intending to blackmail Plaintiff into paying her millions of dollars — Plaintiff filed this lawsuit to preserve his reputation, establish the truth, and put a stop to her scheme,” his original filing explained.

“For the sake of his family, and out of respect for Roe’s family as well, Plaintiff titled this action ‘John Doe vs. Jane Roe.'”

Because his accuser allegedly leaked his name, Brooks decided to submit a secondary filing that included both of their names, per the legal documents submitted Tuesday.

In the filing, the “Friends in Low Places” hitmaker asked for “compensatory damages proximately caused by Defendant’s intentional infliction of emotional distress, defamation, and false light invasion of privacy, including incidental and consequential damages” and “punitive damages in an amount sufficient to deter similar future behavior.”

However, Brooks said the monetary damages “cannot adequately compensate” for the injuries to his reputation.

Brooks’ new filing also alleged his accuser sent him a letter on July 17 in which she “threatened” to “publicly file” over the claims against him unless he agreed to pay her “millions of dollars not to file the suit.”
