LOS ANGELES (KTLA) -- The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office filed new sexual assault charges against Ron Jeremy on Wednesday but dismissed 14 other cases that exceeded the statute of limitations.
Prosecutors earlier this summer charged the 67-year-old adult film star, whose full name is Ron Jeremy Hyatt, with raping three women and assaulting another in separate incidents in West Hollywood.
The District Attorney's Office soon received 25 more complaints and later charged him with 20 additional counts of sexual assault, including cases involving at least two minors.
The alleged incidents span from 1996 to 2020. The victims' ages range from 15 to 54 years old, the DA's Office said.

Hyatt could face a maximum sentence of more than 330 years to life in state prison if convicted as charged, the DA's Office said.
