The lawsuit states that Henry Hopper lured Jane Doe to his house in Venice, California with “the promise of drugs and alcohol.” The mother then accuses Hopper of “sexually offensive conduct… including sexual intercourse, forced oral copulation and sodomy.” The mother claims her daughter was intoxicated at the time of Hopper’s actions.

A lawyer for Jane Doe claims Henry Hopper “preyed upon a young impressionable child, [suggested] that he [cared] for her, [lured] her into his home with promises of alcohol and illegal drugs, and then repeatedly [took] advantage of her youth and vulnerability.” TMZ states it is unclear if Jane Doe reported the incident to law enforcement. The mother of Jane Doe — now 16 years old — seeks unspecified monetary damages for emotional injuries her daughter suffered.

Henry Hopper has no previous criminal record. So far Henry Hopper has not released a statement regarding the rape accusation.
