Cuba Gooding Jr. pleads guilty to forcibly touching woman in nightclub

The Jerry Maguire actor, who had been accused of groping or forcibly kissing more than 20 women appeared in a court in Manhattan on Wednesday and entered the plea as part of a deal, according to The New York Times. The misdemeanour count relates to the allegation that he forcibly kissed a woman at the LAVO Nightclub in New York in 2018. Under the terms of the deal, the 54-year-old avoids jail time and must continue his alcohol and behaviour counselling which he began following his arrest in 2019, for six more months without any arrests.
