It isn’t shocking to read about the allegations aimed at the aging Oscar winner.

Everyone in Hollywood at that time were always competing to see who could find the youngest person they could coerce, and only one person really saw anything negatively happen to them.

Warren Beatty

Warren Beatty accused of coercing sex from underage girl nearly 50 years ago in new lawsuit

Actor and Oscar-winning director Warren Beatty allegedly used his “status” and “power” to coerce an underage girl into sexual encounters nearly five decades ago, a new lawsuit claims.

The accuser, Kristina Charlotte Hirsch, asserts the incidents occurred in 1973 when she was 14 or 15 and when Beatty was in his mid-30s, according to the lawsuit obtained by Variety.

Hirsch doesn’t name Beatty in the Los Angeles lawsuit, which she filed Monday, and instead refers to her alleged abuser as an actor who portrayed Clyde in “Bonnie and Clyde.” Beatty famously played the role in the 1967 crime drama.

She experienced “severe emotional, physical and psychological distress” after the star “used his role, status and power as a well-known Hollywood star to gain access to, groom, manipulate, exploit and coerce sexual contact from her over the course of several months,” the lawsuit alleges. – Source
