Actress Regina Simons and former model Faviola Dadis have come forward with their stories, after accusing action film star and 7th dan aikido black belt Steven Seagal of rape and sexual assault.
The two women recently came forward to tell their stories to The Bloom Firm. Regina Simons claims she was 18-years-old at the time of the incident.
The actress explained that she was an extra on Seagal’s film On Deadly Ground when she was invited to Seagal’s home for a wrap party. The actress then offered grim details of the incident.
“He closed the door and approached me from behind he started kissing my neck and taking off my clothes. I was in shock. I was completely caught off guard. Seagal was more than twice my size and twice my age. I was not sexually active nor had I ever been naked in front of a man before.
“There was nothing consensual about this. I couldn’t move and I felt as if I was watching my body from above..I felt tears coming down my face. Seagal finally finished, and I dressed as fast as I possibly could. He put his hand on the door and asked me if I needed any money. I said no and ran for the door.”
Former model Faviola Dadis claims she was sexually assaulted by Seagal when she was 17-years-old, during an audition within a hotel.
“Steven asked me to take off his clothes, which I did even though I was nervous that there were no other individuals in the room with him. Steven approached me and said he would like to act out a romantic scene…I felt uncomfortable because I was in my bikini and I shyly expressed this, except instead of respecting my boundaries, Steven slipped his hand under my bikini top and began pinching my nipples and simultaneously slid his hand over my vaginal area.”
“I quickly yelled that this audition is over, and I began gathering my things. Steven sat there calmly as if nothing had happened, while I was noticeably upset and terrified by the experience. Steven’s security guard stood blocking the doorway and only moved when Steven motioned for him to do so. I left feeling horrified and totally violated.”
The Los Angeles Police Department has since confirmed that Steven Seagal is under investigation for the accusations.
