Woman accusing Gilbert Rozon of sexual assault lashes out, calls him a liar at civil trial
One of the women accusing Just for Laughs founder Gilbert Rozon of sexual assault lashed out at him during a break in his civil trial today.
Actress Danie Frenette shouted in the courtroom that Rozon is a liar after he denied during his testimony her allegations and those of her stepdaughter.
Her husband allegedly grabbed Rozon by the throat and threatened him after he left the courtroom.
The judge later excluded Frenette's husband from the courtroom for the remainder of the proceedings and suspended the trial until Friday morning.
Frenette alleges Rozon raped her twice and sexually assaulted her, while her stepdaughter alleges he sexually assaulted her when she was 13 years old.
The disgraced former comedy mogul is being sued for nearly $14 million by nine women who accuse him of sexual assault and misconduct.
