Nick Carter Files Countersuit Against Accuser
Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter has filed a countersuit against Melissa Schuman, demanding $2.5 million in damages and denying her allegations of sexual assault. Schuman's accusations, first made public in 2017, allege that Carter raped her in 2003 after giving her a sedative. Carter contends the encounter was consensual and that the allegations have caused significant emotional turmoil and forced him to hire security for his family. The ongoing legal battle also involves another accuser, Shannon Ruth, with Carter seeking $2 million in damages in a related Nevada case. Carter's legal team claims Schuman's lawsuit is a malicious attempt to defame him and revive her dwindling career. Schuman's attorney has criticized Carter's countersuit as a repeat of his stalled Nevada lawsuit.
