Ron Jeremy, an American pornographic actor and filmmaker, has been charged with 20 additional counts of sexual assaults, one of which involves a 15-year-old girl.
According to BBC, Los Angeles district attorney’s office announced on Monday that the new charges span over 16 years, and that the alleged victims range from 15 to 54-year-old.
The development is the latest in the strings of allegations of sexual violence pressed against the porn star, whose real name is Ronald Jeremy Hyatt.
In June, the 67-year-old appeared in court for allegedly raping three women and sexually assaulting the fourth between 2014 and 2019.
His counsel had then dismissed the charges in court, arguing that Jeremy had been “a paramour to over 4,000 women” and that “women throw themselves at him”.
But barely few days after the adult film star appeared in court, prosecutors reported that they received 25 new complaints of sexual misconduct against him.
The porn star has consistently denied the charges against him and reiterated his commitment to prove his “innocence”.
If convicted as charged, Jeremy faces a possible maximum prison sentence of more than 250 years to life.
Jeremy has established himself as one of the most prominent figures in the adult movie industry.
He has featured in over over 2,000 adult films since he kickstarted his career in the 1970s.
