In 1994, Doe was sexually abused by Marcellus Wiley during her time as a Columbia University student. She claimed Wiley raped her in his dorm room. She accused him of using his position and popularity to coerce her into sexual acts.
Doe filed a lawsuit demanding damages from Wiley and Columbia University. She alleged that Columbia University failed to respond to the allegations of rape and sexual assault. Doe was worried about potential retaliation from Wiley due to his public prominence.
Wiley publicly denied the claims and said he plans to countersue the accuser for defamation. He insisted that he did not have vaginal intercourse with Doe and that she pursued him. These events coincided with Annemarie’s debut on RHOBH.
