Manson reportedly sued Wood and her significant other Ilma Gore in March 2022 for defamation and intentionally inflicting emotional distress. He alleged that both women plotted to take him down and destroy his career, according to TMZ. Wood famously accused Manson of grooming and abusing her for years.
