The former assistant claimed that he would visit Singer's Hollywood home to watch movies where "it was then expected that we’d have sex or, at the very least, I would masturbate with him." He continued, "he would get very frustrated if I fell asleep before he was finished."

"I grabbed Bryan and took him back into the house. His eyes were wild and full of rage," Stuerman stated. "I had never seen him like this before. We went to his room and he slammed the door. I found a shattered lamp on the floor and began picking up the pieces." Singer then allegedly told his employee/lover "I’ll f----g kill you if you leave me."

"I realized I was trapped alone in a room with a violently drunk man. The terror quickly sank in. What had happened?," he detailed of the horrific moment. "He was growing angry again. If I had to scream for help, no one would have heard me." He continued stating, "from then on, I lived in fear of Bryan following through on his threats."

"If Bryan found out I had hooked up with someone without his permission — without inviting him to participate — he berated me, and dangled my future in front of me. I wasn’t allowed to date," Stuerman alleged. "I wasn’t allowed to have sex with people of my choosing. He controlled me."
