She says Sanz groped her breasts and touched her genitals in front of some of Sanz\u2019 colleagues. Later that night, she says, Sanz digitally penetrated her.<\/p>\n<p>Sanz has denied the allegations, claiming Doe had asked him for millions of dollars in exchange for her silence before she sued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHoratio certainly is the main character here, but he didn\u2019t abuse me in a vacuum; he abused me all over Saturday Night Live,\u201d the accuser <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/horatio-sanzs-sexual-assault-accuser-speaks-out-he-abused-me-all-over-snl\">told<\/a> The Daily Beast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Doe became connected to cast members of the comedy show when she made a fan page dedicated to Fallon at the age of 15, and then Fallon and Sanz emailed her to thank her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cFlirtatious chats between Sanz and the girl half his age followed, and before long, Doe said she began attending cast afterparties and after-after parties as Sanz\u2019 guest,\u201d The Daily Mail <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-10524557\/Woman-accusing-Horatio-Sanz-sex-abuse-claims-Jimmy-Fallon-known-relationship.html\">outlined<\/a>. \u201cShe claimed many SNL staffers observed her drinking alcohol and doing drugs at those events, despite her being underage at the time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The accuser says Fallon was aware of her age and witnessed her and Sanz\u2019s inappropriate relationship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">A friend of Doe, known as \u201cKatherine,\u201d described Sanz as acting like Doe\u2019s boyfriend at a cast party back in 2001, when Sanz was 32 years old. She noted that the pair were \u201ccuddly\u201d with each other.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Katherine, then 17, said a famous SNL cast member rubbed her leg and called her \u201cbeautiful\u201d at the party.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">At a late night cast party in May 2002, then-17-year-old\u00a0Doe \u201cclaimed that Sanz groped her breasts and touched her genitals in front his several cast members and NBC staffers, one of whom was quoted as exclaiming: \u2018are you f***ing serious?&#8217;\u201d The Daily Mail reported. \u201cLater that night, the complaint alleged that Sanz digitally penetrated Doe over her pantyhose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cFollowing the alleged sexual assault, Doe said she was left feeling confused and angry,\u201d the report added. \u201cWhen she confronted Sanz, she said he blamed her for the incident, and later told her that Fallon \u2018didn\u2019t care if she was a slut.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Days later, Doe shut down her fan page for Fallon, she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cI don\u2019t know how many people knew that Horatio was sexting me regularly. I don\u2019t know how much of our conversations happened when he was in his office at NBC, which he shared with Jimmy Fallon \u2026 but I know that I deserve to know,\u201d the accuser told The Daily Beast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor a long while, Jane says, she made excuses for the NBC and <em>SNL <\/em>employees who witnessed what happened to her and didn\u2019t seem to know how to help,\u201d The Daily Beast report noted, adding that Doe now feels differently.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel less generous toward everyone at <em>SNL.<\/em> I feel less generous toward the cast and I feel every day more and more inclined to speak up and speak out, because people who have admitted to grooming and sexually assaulting children should not get to get away with that,\u201d Doe said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Sanz has said the allegations against him are false. \u201cBefore filing this lawsuit anonymously, she demanded $7.5 million in exchange for her silence,\u201d said attorney Andrew Brettler, Sanz\u2019s lawyer. \u201cWe, of course, refused and will vigorously contest these totally meritless claims.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
