Jimmie Allen must pay $1.8 million to a woman who sued him over accusations that he sexually assaulted and secretly filmed her in a Las Vegas hotel room, a judge ruled Thursday (June 18).
The once-rising star was held liable by default for assault and invasion of privacy in August after he ignored multiple court deadlines. That set the stage for a ruling deciding how much Allen owes the woman (identified only as Jane Doe) in legal damages.
