The woman - going by the alias Jane Doe - filed the lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against Young and the Crown Bar in West Hollywood. There are a wide range of allegations and the woman is seeking unspecified damages.
The incident allegedly happened on Aug. 12, 2011 at the Crown Bar. The woman was at the bar with a friend when Young approached them. Young had met the woman twice before, and he offered her and her friend champagne. The suit alleges that the drink given to the plaintiff contained Gamma-Hydroxbutyric acid or GHB, which is known as the date-rape drug.
The woman allegedly does not remember what happened after she drank the champagne, but she believes that Young took her back to his apartment, where she alleges he had sex with her. When the woman woke up the next morning and asked Young why they were naked in his apartment, the Sixers’ guard allegedly said that they had started having sex but then stopped when she passed out.
The suit says that ensuing tests showed GHB in the woman’s system, and it also states that she underwent exams at the UCLA Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center. In addition, she has reportedly undergone psychiatric evaluations and treatment.
