She says when she tried to take the microphone away from Bruno (Sacha), he allegedly, offensively touched,pushed,and battered her causing her to fall to the ground. Then she said when the cameramen and others rushed to the stage,they began to attack her in order to create a more dramatic response while they recorded her being humiliated and embarrassed. Afterwards, she claims she went to another room and cried uncontrollably. Then she fell unconscious and hit her head on a thinly covered concrete slab which caused two brain bleeds, resulting in her being confined to a wheelchair and walker ever since. Olson and her husband are suing for unknown damages and loss of marital relations.

Also according to reports, Sacha Cohen has a long line of other lawsuits over outrageous antics of his various characters which include his 2006 movie character, “Borat.”
