The District Attorney’s Office also notes that it declined a case that was reported to it based on an alleged 2016 incident due to insufficient evidence.
Prosecutors are recommending bail be set at $6.6 million. If convicted of the charges, he could face a possible maximum sentence of 90 years to life in state prison. However, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is still investigating the case.
Representatives for Jeremy did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.
This is not the first sexual assault against the famed adult industry personality.
In September 2017, Jeremy was accused of sexual assault by a woman in Washington State who claimed the 65-year-old performer grabbed her butt, groped her chest and touched her inappropriately below the belt. TMZ confirmed that the actor was cleared of the charges in March.
Jeremy’s sexual history was depicted in a November 2017 article in Rolling Stone which featured more than a dozen woman who accused the former porn star of sexual assault over the past three decades.
