In August, Taylor Swift won her lawsuit against disc jockey David Mueller, but nearly a year later, he’s claiming that the singer ruined his life.
Mueller, who was found guilty of assault and battery for grabbing Taylor Swift’s bare butt during a 2013 meet and greet, continues to deny that he ever touched her inappropriately.
Swift, 28, claimed that Mueller, 56, grabbed her while she took a photo with him and his then girlfriend. The “Delicate” singer initially reported the incident to his radio station, Denver’s KYGO-FM, and after an investigation, the DJ was fired.
Mueller attempted to sue Swift for defamation in 2015. Swift countersued and won a symbolic $1 in damages. It was one of the first victories of the #MeToo movement and earned Swift inclusion in “The Silence Breakers” in the Time magazine Person of the Year issue in 2017.
