A fourth man has come forward with claims that he had a sexual relationship with Elmo’s puppeteer when the accuser was 16.
The newest allegations heat up the firestorm that’s engulfed Kevin Clash, formerly an integral member of “Sesame Street.” Clash resigned as Elmo’s voice and puppeteer in November when several men filed lawsuits claiming that they had sex with him while they were underage teens.
NBC News uncovered the latest lawsuit that was filed on Monday by a man identified as John Doe. The suit claims that Clash was in his mid-30s when in 1995 he befriended the alleged 16-year-old victim. Clash reportedly flew the teen from Miami to New York, where the two engaged in sexual activity.
