The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) has handed over its investigation into sexual assault allegations against Armie Hammer to the district attorney. The office’s communications director Tiffiny Blacknell reportedly said, “I can confirm that the LAPD has presented a case regarding Armie Hammer to the LADA (Los Angeles District Attorney). The matter is currently under review.” Hammer’s attorney hasn’t yet commented on the development.
While the details of the investigation aren’t entirely known, a woman only identified as Effie accused The Social Network actor of rape during a March 2021 press conference with attorney Gloria Allred by her side. Effie claimed that Hammer had “violently” raped her in 2017 while they were secretly having an affair. Hammer was married to his now-estranged wife, Elizabeth Chambers, at the time. She also alleged that the Call Me by Your Name star had abused her “mentally, emotionally and sexually” during their four-year relationship.
