Actor Clifton Powell Cleared In Civil Rape Case

Myers said the alleged incident caused her to suffer “stress, emotional distress and mental pain and suffering,” as well as rack up legal and medical bills.

Powell, who was never arrested or criminally charged, didn’t respond to the lawsuit, and a judge eventually issued a default judgment against the actor for $150,000 in damages plus $3,095 in medical expenses. But holes in Myers story began to emerge when the lead detective assigned to the criminal case swore in an affidavit that Myers’ sex assault claims were false.
