Disturbing new details and text messages arise in the alleged ‘Bachelor In Paradise’ assault scandal

Warner Brothers announced on Sunday that production on Bachelor in Paradise is being shut down indefinitely after a producer filed a complaint with allegations of misconduct. Since the announcement, there are rumors of drunken, non-consensual sexual activity which occurred between Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson.

In an interview with the Daily Mail, an anonymous Bachelor In Paradise crew member gives the most descriptive statement to date about the events leading up to production being suspended.

“Corinne and DeMario found out when they arrived in Mexico that the storyline would involve the two of them hooking up, so they decided to hang out and get better acquainted over drinks,” a source told The Daily Mail. “Soon they decided to go swimming and when they climbed into the Jacuzzi they were both loaded. Corine proceeded to remove her bathing suit, and things got increasingly sexual.”

“There was hugging and kissing and touching, but before long, she seemed to go limp and was sliding under water. DeMario kept trying to hold her up, and at the same time he appeared to be having intercourse with her. After he finished – which only lasted a few seconds – he lifted her out of the water and laid her on the cement, where he proceeded to have oral sex with her.”

The source said Corinne appeared to be unconscious.

“At that point some of the crew came out and carried her off to her room. She was limp and seemed unable to walk on her own,” they told The Daily Mail.

TMZ reported DeMario told their sources he did not have penetrative sex with her, because he consumed too much alcohol.

The New York Post discovered text messages in which DeMario allegedly tells friends video evidence will prove his innocence.

The text says: “We all know what happened and the tape will prove it.”

Neither DeMario nor Corinne have commented on the allegations, but TMZ reports Corinne has hired an attorney and is said to be blaming producers for not stopping the sexual encounter.

Host Chris Harrison made a statement today about the alleged incidents of misconduct:

“Let me start by saying the safety and care of the cast and crew of our show is of the utmost importance to us. It is with this thought in mind that we made the decision to suspend filming. An investigation into the situation was started immediately,” Harrison told The Post.

“There are a lot of competing details in the various press accounts of the incident. and there’s a lot of misinformation out there too. We urge everyone to be patient until the investigation is complete,” Harrison said. “I will keep you as informed and up to date as I possibly can. We’re sorry for any inconvenience and disappointment this may have caused the cast, the crew and our loyal fans. It is my sincere hope that we can come to a quick resolution on this and get back to work very soon.”
