Vin Diesel Accused of Sexual Battery by Former Assistant

“Fast & Furious” actor Vin Diesel’s lawyer is calling Diesel’s former assistant’s sexual battery accusation “outlandish.” In a lawsuit, Asta Jonasson alleges Diesel "forced himself" onto her at the St. Regis Hotel in Atlanta while filming “Fast Five.” “Let me be very clear: Vin Diesel categorically denies this claim in its entirety,” says the actor’s attorney in a statement. “This is the first he has ever heard about this more than 13-year-old claim made by a purportedly 9-day employee.”
