Her and Shatner were almost the same age. She was 85 and he’s 84.

In her autobiography, she makes mention of a Star Trek "executive" who raped her.

Knowing what I do about Roddenberry's "casting couch", my suspicion is that it was Roddenberry himself.

She never named the executive, because that wouldn't make Star Trek's brass look so hot.

“Not the red shirt!”

Star Trek Red Shirt Cologne is made for the young, modern man or woman of the galaxy who doesn’t hesitate, who revels in being alive today. Red Shirt Cologne instills confidence, showing the universe your strength, your valor, your devotion to living each day as though it could be your last. Bright, clean, and direct with top notes of green mandarin, bergamot, and a hint of lavender, Red Shirt finishes strong with base notes of leather and grey musk. It’s a daring (wo)men’s fragrance for those brave enough to place no trust in tomorrow.

If you’re making a public accusation of rape, you’re beyond giving a sh&% about their public image.

That show was on TV almost 50 years ago!

I’d be surprised. Roddenberry did have affairs with Nichelle Nichols and Majel Barrett (whom later became his wife), but rape seems far-fetched. Plus, if he did, it’s highly unlikely she’d have ever chosen to return to the franchise (beginning with the films) which he’d be prominently involved with.

Wow. That is depressingly sad to know that happened to her. The hypocrisy is that the execs of Star Trek wrote/signed off on those episodes that pontificated each week about morals under the guise of a sci-fi script, and one of their own rapes an attractive actress on the show.

Sick.
