Hollywood actor Gabriel Olds, 52, accused of rape

Hollywood actor Gabriel Olds – known for his roles in a series of well-known shows – is facing multiple charges, according to police.

A Hollywood actor was arrested and taken to jail on several sexual assault charges, including rape, involving several women.

Gabriel Olds, known for starring in NCIS: Los Angeles, has been handed seven felony counts for the alleged incidents spanning a number of years, reports The Sun.

Olds, 52, was charged on July 19 after several women came forward to the police, according to an LAPD press release.

The actor, who lives in Los Angeles, was taken into custody on August 7 after the Los Angeles Superior Court issued a warrant for his arrest.

Claims made against Olds have dated between 2013 and 2023.

Police said their investigation started after a 41-year-old woman filed a report that claimed she was raped by the actor.

This woman alleged the incident happened at her Los Angeles home when she came forward to authorities on January 19, 2023.

Two other women later came forward to police and also accused Olds of sexual assault.

Olds, who was from New York and had graduated from Yale University, allegedly met these women on dates.

“His victims reported that he used his status as an Ivy League alumnus with success in the film industry to meet women and arrange dates,” the LAPD said.

Police added that he had also apparently used dating apps to meet women in recent years.

“Each victim reported that Olds lured them into a false sense of security during their initial encounters, then turned violent without seeking their consent,” the police added.

Police shared that three women came forward with assault claims and two other women reported less violent sexual acts.

A Special Assault Section supervisor at LAPD, Detective Brent Hopkins, shared some insight into their investigation, according to CBS affiliate KCAL.

“We heard the same story again and again,” Hopkins said.

“Mr. Olds started off as charming, but then used brutal violence to carry out these rapes,” the detective claimed.

“Some of these survivors suffered in silence for years before finding the strength to speak up.

“Now that he’s off the streets, we want to make sure everyone has a chance to be heard.”

Olds has appeared in high-profile TV shows like Boardwalk Empire, Criminal Minds, and The Mentalist, according to IMDB.

He also has worked as a screenwriter in Hollywood.

The U.S. Sun has not been able to reach out to Olds or his representatives for comment.
