Karla Souza, one of the stars of the hit ABC series ‘How To Get Away with Murder‘ has revealed that she was raped by a director in Mexico before she rose to fame.
Her story below…
The actress broke the news in an interview with ‘CNN‘:
He knocked at my door saying he wanted to go over some scenes and I thought it’s 2 a.m., it’s not appropriate and it’s something that shouldn’t be happening.
The alleged pervert would punish her if she refused to let him by refusing to shoot scenes she featured in.
Then, one night, she let him in.
I ended up giving in to him [to let him] kiss me, to touch me in ways I did not want him to touch me and in one of those instances, he attacked me violently and yes, he raped me.
The actress is one of many brave activists to step forward with their harrowing stoles with hopes doing so will obliterate sexual predation within entertainment and the world at large.
