Terry Crews has filed a police report against his alleged sexual assaulter. The actor was seen walking out of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollywood division by TMZ cameras on Wednesday, Nov. 8.
“People have to be held accountable,” he tells a photographer of why he decided to file a report before adding he plans to file a lawsuit. “We’re gonna go all in.”
Although Crews declined to name who was the Hollywood honcho that groped him at an event last year, Variety reported a name on Friday, Nov. 3. The trade publication said Crews had been preparing to name Adam Venit as his assaulter. Venit was the longtime head of WME agency’s motion picture group and after Crews publicly detailed his assault, the agency placed Venit on leave in November as it investigates.

In an Oct. 10 Twitter thread, Crews, a WME client, detailed what the executive did to him in front of his wife. He said he was inspired to share his story after accusations against Harvey Weinstein became public.
This whole thing with Harvey Weinstein is giving me PTSD. Why? Because this kind of thing happened to ME. (1/Cont.)
