Personal life
On June 4, 2014, Thor was charged with the sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's office. He was bailed for $2.6 million[1] later reduced to $1 million. The Los Angeles District Attorney’s office filed 14 counts against Thor including kidnapping and sexual assault against a minor, specifically a 13-year-old girl who sought acting lessons. The District Attorney alleges that Thor gave the girl "a controlled substance … marijuana" and sexually assaulted her. Thor pleaded not guilty to all 14 counts.[2] The alleged victim, Jordyn Ladell, named herself in an interview before the trial.[3]
