On July 26, Nick Carter officially filed a countersuit against his sexual assault accuser, Dream singer Melissa Schuman, seeking $2.5 million in damages. Schuman has previously accused the pop singer of sexually assaulting her back in 2003 when she was only 18 years old. Carter’s countersuit was filed in the Superior Court of California, which denies her claims while alleging that Schuman “publicly acknowledges her dwindling career and thirst for internet relevance.” That complaint is a reference to Schuman’s 2014 YouTube video entitled, “I need to Become Important On the Internet.” Carter also went on to claim that Schuman and her father took part in recruiting other parties to defame him. Back in August 2023, a judge denied an attempt to dismiss the countersuit, determining Carter had presented sufficient evidence in order for his defamation case to move forward. (Billboard)
