A 23rd civil case was filed against Deshaun Watson on Wednesday with similar allegations. This case includes civil assault violations of harassment, indecent harassment, and assault. The plaintiff, who is a free-lance make up artist, maintains that Watson assaulted and harassed her by exposing himself, touching her with his penis and groping her. Her name is included in the petition.
The details of this civil case can be read here:
In just under a month, 23 civil cases have been filed against Watson. The most recent case was filed on Wednesday, April 14 and included the name of the plaintiff. Twenty of the previous cases were re-filed to include plaintiff's names after the original filings listed them as Jane Doe. One case faced a deadline of Thursday, April 15 at 2:00 p.m. to either be re-filed to include the plaintiff's name or be stricken. One additional case has been non-suited for now, with the plaintiff stating that was due to safety and privacy concerns, though once those issues are addressed, the possibility of re-filing the case remains.
