Diane Neal, known for her role in NCIS, is currently involved in legal troubles concerning allegations of threatening her ex-boyfriend, J.B. Benn, and his dog, Charlie, as detailed in court documents obtained by Page Six.
According to the documents, Neal allegedly made violent threats against Benn and his pet, which were captured in recorded audio. In a lawsuit filed in 2019, Neal accused Benn of defrauding her, mistreating her pets, and engaging in manipulative behavior. She also claimed instances of physical and sexual assault against herself.
The relationship between Neal and Benn began in 2013 but ended in 2018, preceding their legal battles. Neal reported Benn’s actions to authorities and expressed distress upon listening to the alleged recordings.
Despite her popularity among fans of the actress, who have hoped for her to lead her own spin-off, these legal issues have overshadowed her career. For individuals facing similar challenges, support and resources are available through organizations such as the National Domestic Violence Hotline and the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.
