Was there a conspiracy against Nick Carter (43)? The singer was accused of sexual assault last December. Several women have now joined the allegations. But the Backstreet Boys star vehemently defended herself against the lawsuits. In court, he emphasized that all allegations were false. Now he even goes one step further: Nick suspected that it was a conspiracy against him!
The Blast has a new statement of claim in which Nicks Lawyers on his behalf continue to deny the allegations. “Shannon Ruth and AR’s lawsuits are the culmination of an approximately five-year conspiracy orchestrated by co-conspirators to harass, defame and extort Carter,” the document says. The 43-year-old is now said to be desperate to clear his name again. He is demanding around two million euros in damages due to “mental distress and legal fees”.
Plaintiff Shannon Ruth pitched Nick alleges that she was abused after a concert when she was 17. She was joined by another alleged victim named Melissa Schuman (39). But her statement was called into question when the pop star called in his then roommate Tony Bass to testify in return. He and a friend are said to have been with them all night – there was no abuse. Melissa resisted calling him as a witness because Tony had Nick can’t watch all night.
