When women were minors, a group of women accused Los Angeles DJ Rodney Bingenheimer of sexually assaulting them. Among them is former Go-Goos guitarist Jane Wiedlin, who claims that the hard-partying disc-jockey scratched her crotch against hers until he ejaculated in 1974. The alleged incident occurred while the woman, now 65, was just 15, and she was celebrating a night out at the then-renowned English Disco in the 1990s. The club, which opened by Bingenheimer two years ago, was a well-known haunt for actors of the time like David Bowie, Keith Moon, and Elvis Presley, as well as numerous young girls who were often welcomed with open arms. Members of the illustrious prog rock band Led Zeppelin were also present - and the club's now-defunct boss boasted how they would regularly be provided with school-age girls when they were in town. Wiedlin said she had been exposed to similar misdeeds at the club when she was younger. One of six people suspected of such conduct - one of whom had filed a lawsuit in April - described how Bingenheimer, 75, was allegedly cornered in a back room.
