The ex porn star Ron Jeremy, who accused of rape and sexual assault at the expense of 21 women – some of whom were minors – he was found mentally unfit to attend trial. The court’s decision was made on Tuesday, almost a year after a psychiatric report had been ordered because the actor he did not recognize one of his lawyers who visited him in prison.
Jeremy has to his credit more than 1,700 appearances in pornographic films since the late 1970s. In June 2020, he was charged with raping three women and sexually assaulting a fourth. After he was arrested and brought before a court in Los Angeles, there followed a pile of complaints against him. Since then, he remains in custody, accused of rape and other crimes against 21 women aged 15 to 51, from 1996 onwards.
“If his condition doesn’t improve, we won’t be able to prosecute him for his crimes.”
According to the Los Angeles Times and as relayed by the Athens News Agency, psychiatric experts concluded that he suffers from dementia and his perception has been significantly affected. “If his condition does not improve, we will not be able to prosecute him for his crimesProsecutor Paul Thompson said in an email leaked to the newspaper.
A spokesman for the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office explained today that the court will determine on February 7 where Jeremy will be held, possibly in a nursing facility.
In theory, the judicial authorities can in the future try him if his condition improves. But dementia is a degenerative disease that usually gets worse over time.
Ron Jeremy himself had denied all charges and pleaded not guilty when he was brought before a court, while his lawyer, Stuart Goldfarb, assured that his client “he’s not in a hurry.”
