Just for Laughs founder goes to police after altercation at sex assault civil trial
MONTRÉAL — The founder of the Just for Laughs comedy festival says he has filed a police complaint following an altercation at his civil trial.
Ex-comedy mogul Gilbert Rozon is being sued for nearly $14 million by nine women alleging sexual assault.
Actress Danie Frenette, one of the plaintiffs, hurled insults at Rozon during a break in the trial on Thursday.
Rozon told reporters he filed a complaint with police against Frenette’s husband over a physical altercation that allegedly occurred outside the courtroom.
