New statements have come to light in the Gabriel Olds' sexual assault case, where a woman has alleged that she was assaulted twice by Olds in his LA home. The encounter took place on their first date, which occurred nearly a week after their initial meeting.
While the two first planned to dine at a BBQ restaurant, they decided to go to his LA home after they saw the restaurant closing. The two had dinner, and she claimed to recall that soon after:
"Everything changed and the world flipped upside down and I was no longer a person, I was an object. I suddenly was no longer a human being sitting there. That was so horrific and impossible and unexplainable that I went into a void."
She has not revealed her identity and is referred to in court documents as Jane Doe 2. As per her statement, reported by The Daily Mail, the woman was scared that the Apartment 407 actor would murder her after he allegedly strangled her until she became unconscious.
In her court statement, reported by The Daily Mail, she said:
"When I came back to my body and had awareness again I was naked lying on my back on his bed and he was in the process of raping me and choking me"
When did Gabriel Olds and Jane Doe 2 first meet?
Jane Doe 2 and Gabriel Olds first crossed paths at a Yale event in LA in March 2013, after which he started showing interest in her. According to JD2, they later had dinner in Koreatown and shared a kiss.
Remembering the meeting, she reportedly told the court:
"He appeared normal. He appeared like any other middle aged person in the industry in Los Angeles."
Continuing her statement, she claimed:
"Every time he spoke to me I had a little voice in my head that questioned his motives - his motives behind what he was saying, which was so strange"
In the court, she testified that she never consented to any sexual activity and described the assault as unlike anything she had experienced before. She said Olds became talkative and admitted he couldn’t perform without dominating someone.
According to her statement, she was later approached by another woman, Jane Doe 3, who reportedly shared similar allegations against Olds. She claimed it was then that she realized the scale of Gabriel Olds' alleged actions and felt compelled to act to protect others.
Gabriel Olds was first charged with sexual assault in 2024. According to the County of Los Angeles, if found guilty, Olds could get life in prison.
