3 Charges Filed Against Jim Brown
Actor and former professional football great Jim Brown was formally charged Tuesday with raping, sexually battering and assaulting a schoolteacher last month at his Hollywood Hills home.
The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office filed the three-count felony complaint against Brown, 49, in Municipal Court, where he is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday. If convicted, Brown, who remains free on $17,500 bail, could be sent to prison for up to 13 years. Brown has vehemently denied the charges.
Prosecutors said they will not file charges against Brown’s companion, Carol Moses, 22, who the alleged 33-year-old victim said had also participated in the rape.
