The legal case against actor Gabriel Olds, known for his roles on “NCIS,” “Six Feet Under,” and “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” is intensifying as three more women have come forward with allegations of sexual assault. This brings the total number of accusations against the 52-year-old actor to 12, leading to a cascade of new charges being filed against him by Los Angeles prosecutors.
Olds was initially arrested on August 4th after an investigation linked him to multiple sexual assault cases. The initial charges related to incidents that reportedly occurred over the past several years. With the latest accusations, prosecutors have filed a total of 12 charges, including rape and assault, significantly broadening the scope of the case against him. Olds is currently being held on $3.5 million bail as the legal proceedings unfold.
The three new accusers allege that Olds sexually assaulted them under similar circumstances as previous victims, citing manipulative behavior and the use of his Hollywood status to gain their trust before violating them. Investigators are working to corroborate the women’s accounts as part of a growing investigation that has captured national attention.
Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón has publicly addressed the case, stating that the charges reflect the seriousness of the crimes alleged against Olds. “We take these accusations very seriously. The survivors deserve justice, and we are committed to holding those responsible accountable, no matter their status or background,” Gascón said during a press conference.
As more victims come forward, the case has prompted broader discussions about sexual misconduct in Hollywood, with many advocacy groups voicing their support for the women who have spoken out. The latest developments are also reigniting debates about accountability for those in positions of power in the entertainment industry.
If convicted on all counts, Olds faces a minimum of 20 years in prison. Legal experts suggest that with the number of charges filed, a trial could be lengthy, and the possibility of additional accusers emerging remains high. Olds’ defense team has maintained his innocence, arguing that the relationships in question were consensual and that the accusations are an attempt to smear his reputation.
Olds’ acting career spans decades, with his most recognizable role being on “NCIS,” where he gained a dedicated fanbase. However, since his arrest, Olds has been dropped by his talent agency and has seen his career come to a standstill as the accusations against him continue to pile up.
The actor is expected to appear in court for a preliminary hearing next month, where prosecutors will present their evidence in an attempt to solidify the charges. In the meantime, the case is being closely watched as it unfolds in Los Angeles, marking another high-profile instance of a Hollywood figure facing serious criminal allegations.
Support for the victims continues to grow, with several women’s rights organizations urging more survivors of sexual assault to speak up. “We stand with the brave women who have come forward, and we hope this case will bring attention to the ongoing issue of sexual violence in the entertainment industry,” said a representative from the advocacy group Time’s Up.
As the investigation progresses, authorities are asking anyone with additional information to contact local law enforcement, stressing the importance of gathering as much evidence as possible.
