The
Game of Thrones actress filed a lawsuit against the 52-year-old singer, whose real name is Brian Warner, for alleged sexual abuse, assault and battery, and human trafficking, per court documents obtained by ET on Friday. ET has reached out to Manson s rep for comment. As millions of survivors like myself are painfully aware, our legal system is far from perfect. This is why I co-created the Phoenix Act, a law which gives precious additional healing time to thousands of domestic violence survivors, Bianco said in a statement. But while I fight for a more just legal system, I am also pursuing my right to demand my abuser be held to account, using every avenue available to me.
Actor Esme Bianco is suing Marilyn Manson and his former manager, Tony Ciulla, for sexual assault, sexual battery and human trafficking, according to a complaint filed Friday in a District Court for the Central District of California.

Bianco also alleges that Warner, Ciulla and Ciulla’s management company violated human trafficking laws by bringing Bianco from London to Los Angeles for roles in Warner’s movie and music video projects that never materialised, all while Warner threatened and sexually abused the actress.
