Former US senate candidate, Roy Moore, has sued Sacha Baron Cohen for $95 million.

Roy stated that he believed he was going to appear on an Israeli television show for an interview, but instead was tricked into appearing in Sacha’s comedy in which he was defamed.

In his lawsuit it states that he was “falsely painted, portrayed, mocked and with malice defamed Judge Moore as a sex offender” according to RTÉ.

Not only is Sacha being sued, but the programme’s production company and television station, Showtime and CBS, are also being sued.

Roy’s lawsuit also states: “This false and fraudulent portrayal and mocking of Judge Moore as a sex offender, on national and international television, which was widely broadcast in this district on national television and worldwide, has severely harmed Judge Moore’s reputation and caused him, Mrs Moore, and his entire family severe emotional distress, as well as caused and will cause plaintiffs financial damage.”
