Allegations of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior have surfaced against renowned American magician David Copperfield, as reported by a Guardian US investigation. Sixteen women have come forward, accusing Copperfield of engaging in behavior that spans over several decades.

Copperfield's legal representatives have vehemently refuted the claims made by the women, stating that the allegations are not only false but also lacking in credibility. They emphasized that previous accusations against Copperfield have also not been substantiated and highlighted the fact that he has never faced criminal charges related to these allegations.

In response to the accusations, Copperfield's lawyers stressed that the alleged inappropriate behavior is contradictory to Copperfield's principles and efforts. They pointed out that Copperfield has been a vocal supporter of women's rights long before the #MeToo movement gained prominence, highlighting his advocacy in this area. The legal team asserted that the magician's commitment to gender equality is unwavering, despite the serious allegations brought against him.
