Earlier tonight, The Wrap reported that Murray Miller, a writer and producer on shows like Girls, King Of The Hill, and American Dad, had been accused of sexual assault by actress Aurora Perrineau. Perrineau—whose credits include Jem And The Holograms and Passengers, and who’s the daughter of Lost actor Harold Perrineau—brought her accusations to the West Hollywood police department tonight, filing a report on the alleged assault.
