Three more women accuse Dustin Hoffman of sexual misconduct

Three more women have come forward with allegations of sexual misconduct against actor Dustin Hoffman, according to a Variety report. One of the women was a minor at the time of the alleged incident.

Two women told Variety that Hoffman sexually assaulted them. One said the assault occurred while working on the production for the film “Ishtar.” The other said she was sexually assaulted in the back of a car and manipulated into a subsequent sexual encounter.

A third woman says Hoffman exposed his genitals to her in a hotel room when she was still in high school. Hoffman, now 80, has previously been accused of groping a 17-year-old intern on the set of another one of his films.

Hoffman did not comment for Variety’s story, but his attorney told the publication that the claims were “defamatory falsehoods.”

The youngest accuser, Cori Thomas, said she was 16 years old when Hoffman exposed himself to her in a hotel room. Thomas was a classmate of Hoffman’s daughter Karina at the United Nations International School in New York when she says the incident occurred.

“He came out of the bathroom with a towel at first wrapped around him, which he dropped,” Thomas said. “He was standing there naked. I think I almost collapsed, actually. It was the first time I had ever seen a naked man. I was mortified. I didn’t know what to do. And he milked it. He milked the fact that he was naked. He stood there. He took his time.”

Hoffman was previously confronted at the Tribeca Film Festival by HBO host John Oliver over the previous allegations earlier this month.

The actor issued an apology earlier this month, saying the accusations were “not reflective of who I am.”

“I have the utmost respect for women and feel terrible that anything I might have done could have put her in an uncomfortable situation,” Hoffman said in his apology.

“I am sorry. It is not reflective of who I am,” he said.
