Weeks after getting arrested for outstanding child support payments, Dame Dash now reportedly finds himself looking at another legal situation.
According to a report from The Blast, famed photographer Monique Bunn has filed a sexual battery lawsuit against Damon Dash. In the suit, Bunn reportedly alleges that Dame groped her while she was at a home he shared with his partner, Racquel Horn, for a photoshoot.
The documents allege that the incident happened on April 18, the day after the shoot began. Bunn maintains that she was sleeping in the room of Dame’s daughter when she awoke and realized the mogul was touching her inappropriately.
Monique Bunn has filed a $50 million federal lawsuit against Dame Dash, as well as his fiancee Raquel Horn and Dash’s entertainment companies for an alleged sexual assault that took place at his home.
Bunn claims the alleged incident happened back in April when Dame reportedly wanted Bunn to meet with him and shoot new programming for his companies. She was flown out to Los Angeles to meet with Dame and his fiancee and according to the suit, Bunn immediately started shooting the material for Dash’s companies.
As part of the arrangement, Bunn was staying with Dame and his family during her trip, according to the complaint. She was told she would be sleeping in Dame’s daughter’s room.
Bunn alleges that Dame Dash approached her while she was sleeping and placed his hand on her breasts and butt. The suit says, “Dash did not have the permission or consent to touch Bunn’s sexual organs. Dash was wearing a robe and had no underwear on. Dash had been drinking alcohol and smoking
“While Bunn was sleeping, Dash approached Bunn and placed his hand on Bunn’s breasts and placed hands/fingers on Bunn’s buttocks. Dash did not have the permission or consent to touch Bunn’s sexual organs,” reads one part of the suit. “Dash was wearing a robe and had no underwear on. Dash had been drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana all day.”
Bunn claims that she was able to get Dame’s hands off her and that she threatened to fight him before he ultimately left the room, where she stayed for the rest of the night. She says she didn’t get to sleep.
In another part of the suit, Bunn says Dame lied to her about having made a deal with WETV to make a docuseries about her life. She believes he created that lie in order to keep her from addressing Dame’s alleged battery.
Horn is also named in the suit. Bunn accuses Horn, Poppington LLC and Damon Dash Studios of negligent emotional distress and theft by conversion. She says photos she took of celebrities like Queen Latifah, Lauryn Hill and Diddy have yet to be returned to her following the photoshoot.
