For almost three years, fashion designer Anand Jon has allegedly been forcing women into sexual acts against their will.Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office, said Jon was charged with six felonies and one misdemeanor for alleged sexual assaults between October 2004 and March 5.
Now, the shameful human being is going to face the consequences of his crimes and is currently being charged with two counts of forcible rape, sexual battery by restraint, attempted forcible oral copulation and two counts of committing a lewd act upon a child.
TMZ reports that Jon is at the Los Angeles County jail and is expected in court on April 4. His bail is set at more than $1 million.
According to AP, Ronald Richards, Jon's attorney, claims his client is innocent, saying, "He absolutely contends he didn't break any laws with respect to the contact he had with these women."
Richards also added his own little spin by placing the blame on the women, whom he says are just looking to ruin Jon's reputation and get him into trouble.
He added, "When you have people desperate to be in fashion, they get upset when you don't place them where they want to be. When you deal with a large amount of women, you're going to have potential false allegations made against you." WHAT??? Looks like Anand needs a new attorney.
An immigration hold has also been placed on the designer as authorities investigate whether or not he is in the country legally.
The Indian designer is a close friend of Paris Hilton and other celebrities. He was named the "Next Thing In 2007" by Newsweek, who also included him in their "Power & Influence" list a few years ago....source: AHN
