The Last of Us actor Ashley Johnson, with six other women, sued her ex-boyfriend Brian W. Foster, alleging sexual assualt, stalking and intentions of emotional stress. Recently, the seven women filed a civil against Foster suit in an LA County court. “Fueled by chronic abuse of drugs and alcohol, Defendant Brian Wayne Foster has, for the last decade, demonstrated a disturbing pattern and practice of chilling and depraved behavior towards women. The women unfortunate enough to have crossed his path were subjected to a common thread of physical and sexual violence as well as mental and emotional abuse. Foster has left a trail of victims whose lives he sought to control through various lies, threats, intimidation, and manipulation,” the lawsuit read. Foster has not responded to the allegations and there is no legal representation for him in the complaint.
