In separate alleged incidents, Carter sexually assaulted the then-teenager on a bus and again on a boat, the lawsuit said.
The lawsuit also claims Carter “knowingly provided alcohol and drugs to then-minor A.R. on this occasion and caused her to become intoxicated on his yacht,” documents said. It also claims Carter infected the teenager with human papillomavirus, or HPV, the lawsuit said.
