The Oscar-winning actor is accused of allegedly squeezing a woman’s buttocks, squeezing another woman’s chest and forcibly touching a woman in an inappropriate manner. He was arrested in June 2019 after a 29-year-old woman told police officers Gooding was groping for her without her consent in the Magic Hour Rooftop Bar & Lounge near Times Square. He was charged shortly afterwards with the other incidents.
Gooding’s trial was originally scheduled for April 2020, but was postponed after cases of coronavirus rose in New York, eventually shutting the state down.
He denies guilt and denies all charges
