Hirsch, who now lives in Louisiana, alleges that Beatty met her on a movie set, where he gave her “undue attention,” commented on her appearance and gave her his phone number. She alleges that Beatty called her several times in 1973, invited her to the hotel where she lived and took her for a drive.
The suit also alleges that Beatty, who would have been in her 35s at the time, offered to help her with her homework and repeatedly told her that she had lost her virginity.
According to the lawsuit, the defendant “used his position and status as an adult and Hollywood movie star to force sexual contact with the plaintiff on multiple occasionsincluding oral sex, simulated sex, and finally forced sexual intercourse with the minor.”
The lawsuit states that Hirsch was “initially excited” by the attention and believed she was in a romantic relationship with him.
Hirsch is seeking compensation for psychological, mental and emotional distress. The suit alleges that he has had difficulty interacting with people in positions of authority as a result of the sexual abuse and has suffered “trust and control issues.”
Hirsch sued under a 2019 California law that opened a three-year “lookback window” for child sexual abuse claims that would otherwise be barred by the statute of limitations. That window expires on January 1, 2023.
