Cops: Seattle Woman Claims David Copperfield Raped Her
A Seattle woman has made a rape claim against magician David Copperfield, law enforcement sources tell FOX News.
The woman told Seattle police the magician raped her while she was in the Bahamas, sources said. Because the alleged incident happened abroad and the woman did not report it until she returned to the United States, Seattle authorities turned over the case to the FBI.
On Thursday, FBI officials raided a Las Vegas warehouse used by Copperfield. Seattle FBI agent Robbie Burroughs said Thursday the case was related to one in Washington.
"The investigation is related to a Seattle case. The Seattle case is pending and that means we can't say anything about it," Burroughs said.
Copperfield has been contacted by law enforcement authorities and the FBI has conducted an investigation in Las Vegas, where the magician regularly performs, his lawyer and the FBI confirmed.
Copperfield's Las Vegas attorney, David Chesnoff, refused to give specifics about the charge. "If in fact those are the allegations, unfortunately false allegations are all too often made against famous individuals," Chesnoff said. "But we are confident the investigation will conclude favorably."
He continued: "We are in touch with the investigators and are respecting the confidentiality of the investigation."
Copperfield has a warehouse in Las Vegas that he has dubbed the International Museum & Library of the Conjuring Arts. He apparently stores tricks and memorabilia from around the world at the warehouse.
"I can confirm that there's investigative activity at the warehouse," FBI special agent David Staretz, spokesman for the Las Vegas office, said. Staretz would not elaborate.
KLAS-TV reported that an FBI raid with 12 agents took place Wednesday at Copperfield's warehouse.
Copperfield, 51, has been a longtime performer at the Hollywood Theater at the MGM Grand casino-hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, where he has performed in six- to eight-week stints several times a year, said MGM Mirage Inc. spokeswoman Yvette Monet.
Monet said Copperfield performed two shows Wednesday night, which were at the end of his most recent run. Monet said Copperfield next was scheduled to perform in Jakarta, Indonesia.
One of the most exciting new bands in music right now, Operator Please, has just dropped another new video!
Unfitney Breaks The Law. Again.
I actually believe this. I know people who have worked with him and said he is the WORST person to work with. A complete ass. I can see this happening. In one of his act he has a women come up stage and makes her grab his ass.
She waited until she returned home to report the rape, which makes me think that she has an eye on a civil $uit !
I don't care how famous a person is.. if they hurt you then you report their ass to the police.
His name is being sunk in the mud. while the accuser hides behind a rape shield that is unfair.
Re: Both parties deserve respect –
Thank you for your comment! It was great to finally see someone on this site who is actually capable of posting an intelligent response!!
Re: DetWingsGirl – Who wouldn't? I couldn't imagine anyone banging that creepo and not thinking they'd been drugged later. He's revolting.
Mr. Perez..in America, you're innocent until proven guilty. .
Ah for God sake. I don't like the guy, but it would really surprise if he a) would be into women b) and actually rape one. Why should he do that? And why the hell she needs to tell it to the police in Seattle? Bahamian police not good enough for her? The story stinks.
IM USING MY STUPID BOYFRIENDS TURD AS A DILDO IM STICKIN THE TURD IN MY VAGINA NOW AAAAAAAAAAGH FEELS GOOD LOOKS GOOD NOW IM GIVING THE TURD A BLOWJOB IM LITERALLY SUCKIN A TURD
He's def. a little strange and into young girls. I saw him at a Jessica Simpson concert in 2004 at Radio City Music Hall and he was with some blond Russian girl who didn't look like she was even 18 yet. I was in high school at the time and the girl looked like she was my age. My friends and I kept wondering why old ass David Copperfield was even there in the first place… probably scoping more young girls!
He's gay. She's probably lying and only after his money. He always seemed a little shady to me.
Re: - –
R U kidding me??
You mext be Gay!
You wish u knew about some Vagina!!
Hey Im not sayin guilty or not, just fuckin let this play out for a change and not convict him until perez makes it juicier.
HAS BEEN
WOW! I THOUGHT HE WAS GAY!!
It's an allegation Perez, nothing has been proven. Don't be so irresponsible.
BWWWWWAAAAHAHAHAHA!
Poor woman, nobody told her???
I used to work with a (gay) guy named Sonny who was a former "male escort" in Chicago in the 80's. He told me that Mr. Copperfield used his "services" many times. Very credible and detailed info. He's bi at the very least.
"There is at least a 90% chance that you are a rapist"
What the hell. The obnoxiously bizarre things you read on the internet…
Just because he is gay that doesn't mean he can't get it up for females. I can look at this picture and tell he is a creep. Only a dummy would go anywhere with him. They are probably searching his warehouse for the harness and gag he used to tie her up with.
It can't be true because he's gay. Unless the "woman" had a dick then it might be true.
David Copperfield is awesome; he didn't rape anyone.
It doesn't matter how promiscuous he may be… that doesn't make him a rapist. He's so rich and famous that he can have sex continually is he wants. He does not need to rape!
I once was a witness for a man who was accused of rape. I knew him well… we were lovers; he was a chick magnet. The accuser's husband was in the hospital getting open heart surgery and she didn't want him to find out after being busted by a sheriff while fucking in a car on a country road. So she claimed that my friend raped her at knife point.
We went to court. When I walked in, the judge, lawyers and her husband took one look at fit and fashionable me and then her - fat and dowdy and the whole atmosphere of the room changed. She refused to cme back to court after that day… she had embarrassed herself and her husband. But most seriously of all… she had been willing to throw a mans life away who had been willing to give her a pity fuck.
I've been raped, so understand both sides… but, unfortunately many women use the rape card maliciously against those with money; which makes it harder for those who are truly brutalized.
Ok, two things….
1) If the cops are hauling out a hard drive and camera memory card (not to mention the cash from the safe), there has got to be more going on here then an investigation for rape. a rape that supposedly occured out of the country and over 3 months ago. it doesn't make sense. There has to be a LOT more to this story.
2) The majority of the comments on this story are completely childish and reminds me why i hardly even bother coming to this site anymore. You people seriously need to grow up.
as if it's that big
Re: velvet – Thank you for your very insightful commentary. We will all now become quite mature and responsible folk because you graciously took the time to chide us and help us see the errors of our ways. Now, just go away and eat shit and die.
douchenozzle!
i believe he raped this woman because he did the same thing to my sister in a hotel room in vegas over 20 years ago. He threw her on the bed and she got up and ran out of the room. He is a full fledged creep. Its a sad day when people side with rapist celebs.
What, was he so used to magically getting what he wants
that when she didn't, he just took it?
Easy to hide behind the 'I'm famous and she just wants my money' thing.
Could also be that, so the evidence will have to speak for her or him.
#13, your comments are reprehensive. Attitudes like that are what lead to rape in the first place. I hope your penis gets caught in somebody's slamming car door.
HES GAY people shes a FAKE!
For heaven's sake woman, if you're going to try and pull a "rape for money" rig on a celebrity, at least choose a straight one to make it a teency bit believable!
he made his sausage disappear in her box!!!!
no he didn't, it was only an illusion!!
I KNOW this accusation CAN'T be true!!! He seems SO GAY! The chances of him touching a woman, except for PR purposes or in his act, have to be nil!
