Actor Michael Pitt, known for his roles in “Boardwalk Empire” and “Dawson’s Creek,” faces nine counts, including sexual abuse and assault, stemming from a grand jury indictment related to alleged incidents involving his ex-girlfriend between April 2020 and August 2021 in Brooklyn. Pitt’s lawyer claims the allegations are baseless and expects the case to be dismissed, as Pitt has pleaded not guilty and posted bail. He is scheduled to return to court on June 17, while the Brooklyn District Attorney’s office has not commented further on the case.
