SUZANNE CORDEIRO/AFP via Getty Images According to the woman’s lawsuit, in May 2019, she and Brooks traveled to Los Angeles together for a Grammys tribute to fellow musician Sam Moore. The rape was “painful and traumatic,” her lawsuit continued, adding that at one point, Brooks “held her small body upside down by her feet and penetrated her.” In Brooks’ suit, his attorneys said the woman had been going through financial difficulties. When she asked Brooks for help, he initially gave her money out of “loyalty, friendship, and a desire to improve Defendant’s condition,” but she continued to ask for more, including salaried pay and medical benefits.
