Taryn Manning, ‘Orange Is The New Black’ Actress, Accused Of Attacking Holly Hartman

Orange Is the New Black‘s Taryn Manning is facing accusations that she attacked longtime friend, makeup artist Holly Hartman.

Taryn Manning Attack Accusations

Hartman claimed in a restraining order petition that Manning has attacked her multiple times, the latest attack occurring in November at the actress’s apartment in New York City. According to Hartman, during the November attack, Manning headbutted her, sprayed Windex in her face, whipped a wet towel at her and put her in a headlock, TMZ reported.

Manning also allegedly tried to encourage Hartman to stab her, supposedly yelling, “Pick a knife. I’m wearing a white shirt there will be a lot of blood. You will be famous for killing Taryn Manning.”

Since Hartman filed the petition in California and the alleged events took place in New York, the judge denied her the restraining order.

In response to the allegations, Manning’s attorney released a statement claiming that his client has not recently had contact with Hartman, and that the makeup artist is currently under investigation for alleged actions against Manning.

“The court has already denied the request by Ms. Hartman for a temporary restraining order,” Manning’s attorney told People. “The application for the order is suspect because Ms. Manning has had no contact with Ms. Hartman in many months due to Ms. Hartman’s actions against Ms. Manning which are currently under criminal investigation in multiple jurisdictions.”

“These investigations have long predated these entirely fabricated allegations. Ms. Hartman is under investigation for stalking Ms. Manning and for theft and other crimes,” the lawyer continued. “It is clear that Ms. Hartman’s camp has leaked these allegations which were not available publicly to elevate her own position and obscure her own wrong doing.”

In 2012, Manning was arrested for allegedly assaulting Hartman. The charges were later dropped.
