His Private Island
A friend says the woman flew from Seattle to the Bahamas to attend
what she'd been told was a lavish party Copperfield was going to throw
but, when the accuser arrived, there was nobody there but Copperfield.
Copperfield forced himself on the young woman.
The next day, the friend says, the woman returned to Seattle and
went right to a hospital, where a rape exam was performed. The friend
says the woman purposely didn't shower after the alleged assault, so
traces of semen could be preserved, and the woman also took cell phone
pictures of the supposed crime scene.
