Garth Brooks has submitted photos of his anonymous sexual assault accuser after making the controversial decision to name in her a previous filing.
Earlier this week, Brooks’ legal team filed a motion opposing Roe’s efforts to sanction Brooks and have his amended complaint — in which he revealed her real name — sealed or redacted. Brooks’ lawyers have argued that their decision to identify Roe was in response to actions she took to publicize the case, as well as allegedly identifying descriptions Roe included in her own legal filings.
Brooks’ lawyers claim that in the lawsuit Roe filed in California, “she describes herself as a Mississippian with a thirty-plus-year career who has worked as a trusted make-up artist and hair stylist” to Brooks and his wife, Trisha Yearwood. It also mentions a 2022 magazine profile on Roe, which “touted her professional relationship” with the couple and included a photo of the three of them, allegedly provided by Roe.
Brooks has claimed that he wanted to proceed with pseudonyms and redactions, but Roe “opposed” his motion for joint pseudonymity “in its entirety.” Brooks’ lawyers say Roe “urged the Court that both parties to this case should proceed under their own names.” Their new motion also cited a line from a previous filing from Roe’s attorneys that stated she was “willing to proceed using her name here if this Court believes that is necessary” to deny Brooks’ motion for joint pseudonymity.
After Brooks’ legal team identified Roe in their amended complaint earlier this month, Roe’s lawyers, Douglas Wigdor, Jeanne Christensen, and Hayley Baker, issued a statement saying, “Garth Brooks just revealed his true self. Out of spite and to punish, he publicly named a rape victim. With no legal justification, Brooks outed her because he thinks the laws don’t apply to him. On behalf of our client, we will be moving for maximum sanctions against him immediately.
