Lena Dunham has admitted she lied about the extent of her knowledge of a rape accusation by actor Aurora Perrineau against Girls writer Murray Miller.
Perrineau came forward last year to allege that in 2012, when she was 17 years old, Miller whose production credits include King of the Hill and American Dad took her and some friends to his home, where she later woke up with him "having sexual intercourse with me."
"At no time did I consent to any sexual contact with Murray", she told The Wrap, after filing a police report about the alleged assault.
Miller denied the allegations. Dunham and her co-show runner Jenni Konner issued a statement on the same day that the accusation against Miller emerged, which attempted to discredit Perrineau.
