Michael Pitt's Legal Troubles: Sexual and Domestic Violence Allegations
Actor Michael Pitt has been detained.
Step into the world of Hollywood where glamour meets controversy. Actor Michael Pitt, famed for films like "Ghost in the Shell" and series such as "Boardwalk Empire," finds himself under scrutiny again. Reports indicate his latest run-in with the law could be more serious than ever.
According to several U.S. media sources, Pitt was apprehended in New York City based on accusations made by an ex-girlfriend. These allegations involve acts of sexual and domestic violence, as detailed in court documents mentioned by the New York Post. Unfortunately, the specifics about the cases and incidents remains undisclosed.
In the Brooklyn Supreme Court, Pitt pleaded not guilty to all charges during a recent hearing. The judge granted him bail of $100,000, but the date for the trial remains undetermined as of this writing.
The situation has stirred controversy, with Pitt's lawyer suggesting a smear campaign orchestrated against him. The lawyer commented that the allegations stem from the uncorroborated statements of a mentally unstable individual. He believes that the timing of the charges, during a period when the couple had a consensual relationship, raises suspicion.
This isn't the first time Pitt has encountered legal woes. Back in 2022, he was briefly hospitalized following an episode of "emotional distress" in which he allegedly threw objects at bystanders. Earlier in the year, Pitt was reportedly arrested for snatching a man's phone and assaulting him on the street, but no charges were eventually filed.
Throughout his career since the late 1990s, Pitt has graced the screen in numerous film and TV roles. He was recently seen in the drama "Day of the Fight" (2023), and has previously appeared in "The Village" (2004) and "Ghost in the Shell" (2017). Beyond the screen, he's been a cast member in series such as "Dawson's Creek," "Boardwalk Empire," and "Hannibal."
