  "textContent": "In 2024, the musician Anna \"Nesey\" Gallons accused Julian Koster, a member of Neutral Milk Hotel, of grooming her and sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager. In a series of Instagram posts, Gallons wrote that she and Koster began a phone and email correspondence in 2000, when she was 15, and that he wrote that she was his \"soulmate.\" She also says that this turned into a sexual relationship and that he sexually assaulted her twice in 2005. In response, Koster said that he did, in fact, have a sexual relationship with the 16-year-old Gallons, but he also described himself as \"the victim of intimidation, manipulation, and abuse by Nesey Gallons for many years.\" Now, Koster has been granted a protection from abuse order against Gallons and her partner.\n\nThe post Neutral Milk Hotel’s Julian Koster Granted Protection Order Against Grooming Accuser appeared first on Stereogum.",
