LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A judge denied a request by one of five women who accuse Robert Knepper of sexual assault to take a DNA sample of the ``iZombie” actor in order to assess the credibility of his denial regarding one of the other accusers.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Christopher Lui did not state the reasons behind his decision Thursday to reject the motion by plaintiff Susan Bertram, a costume supervisor who has worked in Hollywood for more than 30 years.
Bertram's first sexual abuse allegation against Knepper dates to 1991, when she alleges the actor assaulted her during filming of the film ``Gas Food Lodging.”
