Sylvester Stallone's Lawyer Shrugs Off Sexual Assault Allegation

Rambo star Sylvester Stallone had only a consensual sexual relationship with the woman who has accused him of sexual assault, according to his lawyer. The woman is only seeking publicity, and authorities are only picking up on it to appease the #MeToo movement, the lawyer further says. Do you believe him?

The sexual assault case that was filed Wednesday against Sylvester Stallone is nothing but a smear campaign — and the only reason authorities announced they were reviewing it is because they are trying to appease “the #MeToo generation,” the actor’s lawyer claims.

“The DA’s office in both New York and LA want to get it out there that they’re investigating these matters,” attorney Marty Singer told The Post.

“You don’t see police or the DA’s office issuing statements about everybody who files a police report — people would get ruined,” he said. “Why go to the media? Why not do the investigation first?”

Stallone, 71, is accused of sexually assaulting a woman he used to date in the early 1990s. The Los Angeles County DA’s Office started reviewing the case Wednesday after it was handed over by Santa Monica Police.

Singer says his client is completely innocent, and that the sex he had with the alleged victim was always consensual. The two met in Israel while Stallone was filming “Rambo III” and they saw each other regularly for several years.

“They had a consensual, sexual relationship when he was single,” Singer said. “But nothing happened.”

The couple eventually broke things off and went their separate ways, according to Singer, and that was the last time Stallone heard from the woman. It wasn’t until after the #MeToo movement began making headlines last year — following the Harvey Weinstein scandal — that she surfaced with the allegations, Singer said.
