Marilyn Manson appeals Evan Rachel Wood defamation case dismissal over claim she forged FBI letter
Marilyn Manson is appealing the dismissal of his defamation lawsuit against ex-fiancee Evan Rachel Wood - claiming she forged an FBI Ietter as part of a scheme to falsely accuse him of sexual assault.
In March 2022 Manson sued Wood over the 'malicious falsehood' of the abuse allegations she made against him and alleged the actress 'derailed his successful music, TV and film career' by accusing him and allegedly encouraging others to do the same.
Wood, 36 - who dated Manson, 55 between 2006-2011 - accused the musician of sexual abuse and misconduct in 2021 - Manson has denied all the allegations.
In new legal documents obtained by TMZ Manson has argued his lawsuit against the actress should never have been thrown out - and claims he has proof she and on-off romantic partner Illma Gore forged an FBI letter that accused the rocker of being under investigation for sexually abusing women.
Including the allegedly forged letter in his filing, Manson claims Wood only filed a declaration that she herself did not forge the letter and did not deny that it was a forgery.

He also claims Wood 'spread falsehoods' about him, solicited information from his ex employees, manufactured fictitious emails and 'swatted' him at his home to spread her claims.
Manson claims the lower court judge in the case 'did not take into consideration' that one of his accusers recanted her allegations of abuse and claimed she felt pressured by Wood into lying about Manson.
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Evan Rachel Wood and Marilyn Manson for comment.
Manson's original suit accused Wood and Gore, real name Ashley Gore, of impersonating an FBI agent to distribute a forged letter to 'create the false appearance' that Manson's alleged victims and their families were in danger.
The performer also claimed Wood and Gore created a fake email address to make it look as if Manson sent her 'illicit pornography' and that the pair orchestrated a swatting incident at his LA home last month.
The complaint also stated that Wood - who has accused of Manson of abuse and sexual assault - and Gore provided checklists and scripts listing specific acts of abuse for prospective accusers to claim against Manson, including that he filmed the sexual assault of a minor.
Wood has previously said Manson 'brainwashed and manipulated into submission' and that he 'started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically abused me for years.' She also claimed the musician 'coerced [her] into a commercial sex act under false pretenses' and 'essentially raped [her] on-camera'.

Manson's suit claimed Wood, with the help of Gore, fabricated her allegations against Manson in effort to 'provide more manufactured content' for Phoenix Rising, which both women worked on.
Wood and Gore were accused of recruiting, coordinating and pressuring women into making false accusations against Manson.
In addition to alleging the women provided Manson accusers with scripted responses and a 'checklist of 21 fabricated acts of abuse,' the complaint also states that Gore solicited prospective accusers by phone, text message, email, and/or social media, with the following message:
Manson also accused the pair of distributing fictitious letters 'attributed to a real-life federal agent and included a forged signature and fake phone number for that agent' warning his accusers of being endangered.
The complaint states the FBI agent listed on the letter confirmed she did not author or approve the note and claimed she had no knowledge of its existence.
Manson's counsel claims a text exchange between Gore and Wood, using the nickname Alabama, confirms they penned the letter together.
It also alleged Wood submitted the forged letter in a California custody proceeding as supposed evidence for why she should be able to move her son, Jack Matfin Bell, to Tennessee.
Wood has testified that Manson threatened that he would 'f**k' Bell - which he denied.
Manson first learned of the alleged accounts and emails in November 2021.
The complaint also accused Gore of hacking into Manson's computer, phone and email account, obtaining his passwords and social security number.
The artist is accused of using information she obtained as part of her alleged hacking scheme to 'orchestrate and promulgate false accusations against Warner'.

Manson also claims Gore orchestrated a swatting incident against him on February 3, 2021 by sending police to look into him under false pretenses. This was shortly after Wood came forward with her abuse allegations.
On that date, Los Angeles police were notified by the FBI that Gore, identifying as a friend of Manson, had expressed concern for the musician's safety after she had reportedly been unable to reach him.
Police responded to the alleged 'emergency' and, when Manson did not answer the door, additional officers were called to the scene, the suit argues, noting a LAPD helicopter circled his home and shone a spotlight into his windows.
Officers reportedly returned to the property multiple times before entering the residence and 'determin[ing] there was no evidence of any trouble.'
'[Gore's] report was false. [Manson] was at home with his wife and a guest and not in any danger. Gore knew her report was false—she and Warner have never even met. She has never been Warner’s “friend,” and had no basis to believe Warner posed any risk of danger to himself,' the complaint states.
The Westworld star was linked with Manson from 2006 until 2011
Additionally, the rockstar has accused Gore of slander.
Wood in 2018 appeared in front of Congress in support of the nationwide implementation of the Sexual Assault Survivors' Bill of Rights Acts, delivering testimony about past sexual abuse she had suffered without naming Manson at the time. She later publicly identified him as her alleged abuser.
The Westworld star was linked with Manson from 2006 until 2011. In the first installment of Phoenix Rising, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2023, she said that the Beautiful People artist had violated her in 2007 during the filming of his music video Heart-Shaped Glasses.
Wood also said she was 'scared' to expose Manson's alleged wrongdoings, and that it had taken her a 'really long time' to cease blaming herself for what had happened.
King issued a statement denying Wood's accusations about the video shoot.
Manson emerged as a musical star in the mid-1990s, known as much for courting public controversy as for hit songs like The Beautiful People and hit albums like 1996's Antichrist Superstar and 1998's Mechanical Animals.
Several women have sued Manson in recent years with allegations of sexual and other abuse. Most have been dismissed or settled, including a suit filed by Game of Thrones actor Esmé Bianco.
