Neil Gaiman Hit With Rape & Human Trafficking Lawsuits

After months of horrific allegations of sexual misconduct, The Sandman creator Neil Gaiman has been taken to court in a trio of states on allegations of rape, human trafficking and more by a former New Zealand nanny of his and musician Amanda Palmer’s son.
“This claim arises out of Defendant Neil Gaiman’s sexual abuse of Plaintiff, and his wife Amanda Palmer’s role in procuring and presenting Plaintiff to Gaiman for such abuse,” states a rape and human trafficking complaint filed in federal court Monday in Wisconsin by Scarlett Pavlovich. “Gaiman has a decades-long history of sexual misconduct consistent with the actions that will be described in the following paragraphs,” the 28-page nine claim action adds, with vivid detail including a sodomy rape of “slave” Pavlovich by Gaiman just three years ago.
Seeking at least $1 million and a jury trial, the case’s details align with the deeply researched New York Magazine “There Is No Safe Word”piece by Lila Shapiro from earlier this year and the allegations made by Pavlovich and seven different women against Gaiman. That New York Magazine article drew from Tortoise Media’s six-part podcast Master: The Allegations Against Neil Gaiman from last summer.
In a January 14 blog post, after the Shapiro penned piece came out, Gaiman wrote: “As I reflect on my past – and as I re-review everything that actually happened as opposed to what is being alleged – I don’t accept there was any abuse. To repeat, I have never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity with anyone.”

Saw that about a week ago. It's a shame because I enjoyed some of his writing

is this a new allegation? That Amanda Palmer was pimping for him?

He's written a lot of great stuff. Regardless of whatever the verdict is I'll still enjoy his books. Just like I still enjoy Dilbert and Prairie Home Companion reruns.

Whooooo boy. Know a ton of people who loved this guy, personally I really enjoyed American Gods. I bet you could get a hell of a deal on Sandman right now.

This. I imagine tons of “classic” art was produced by horrific human beings. I may find information about the artist interesting, or disturbing, or whatever, but that doesn’t affect the art for me.

She looks pretty bad in this article.
I also leaned from this article Gaiman's family are leaders in Scientology going back to the 60s, NG was pretty involved too. I went down a rabbit hole and here's a pretty interesting article about his father and a suicide/murder that happened at the Gaiman family home when NG was 8.

Im shocked, shocked that a band that celebrated and mimic’d the decadence and depravity of 20’s Germany would be into… decadence and depravity.

Well, that's certainly Girl Anachronism behavior, Amanda.

Sometimes I wonder about writers who write like he does. There has to be a weirdness of mind to come up with some of that stuff.

Unlikely
Ugly people, physically and morally, make ugly art. Their art is a window into their soul.

Good to know, weirdo.

What is the timeline for these charges? Recent v. 20 years ago makes a big difference.
