A woman in eastern Ontario is suing Colonel Russell Williams for an alleged sexual attack.
The 21-year-old — identified only as Jane Doe — claims she has been suicidal and dealing with drug and alcohol dependencies since being attacked in her home last September.
She says in the suit she was terrified her attacker would kill her or her infant daughter when Williams allegedly broke into her (Tweed-area) home and assaulted her.
The 2.45 (m) million dollar lawsuit also alleges Williams’ wife was involved in the fraudulent transfer of Ottawa real estate in a effort to defeat her claim against Williams.
The allegations have not been proven in court and it is not clear if a statement of defence has been filed.
The former commander of C-F-B Trenton is charged with murder in the deaths of two area women and sexually assaulting two others.
Williams also faces 82 break-and-enter charges.
