«Star Trek» and «Transformers» screenwriter and producer Roberto Orci was accused of «repeatedly» assaulting his wife in new lawsuit.
“Star Trek” and “Transformers” screenwriter and producer Roberto Orci was accused of “repeatedly” physically and sexually assaulting his wife, actress Adele Heather Taylor, in a lawsuit filed Monday.
The filing, a countersuit to Orci’s June suit against Taylor claiming she assaulted him with a Taser and pepper spray, graphically details years of physical abuse dating back to a March 2018 incident that saw Taylor fleeing a taxi after Orci struck her three times in the face. It characterizes the producer as a bipolar alcoholic who “seldom takes his medication” — one who would belittle her with insults like “whore,” “slut” and “other derogatory, sexist slurs.”
Other instances of assault Taylor details in the countersuit include a pair of alleged May 2022 and June 2022 incidents where he beat her to the ground and raped in her their garden, proclaiming in the former case that he “can do whatever I want to you” and in the latter that “you enjoy being raped.
