Watson hasn't responded to the growing accusations since Buzbee announced the first case late Tuesday night, adding, "It's about clearing my name, and I look forward to doing that" on Twitter.

Watson's agent David Mulugheta joined in on the social media chiming in his client's defense Friday afternoon, finishing his post with, "I simply hope we keep this same energy with the truth."

Sexual assault is real. Victims should be heard, offenders prosecuted.

Individuals fabricate stories in pursuit of financial gain often. Their victims should be heard, and those offenders also prosecuted.

I simply hope we keep this same energy with the truth.
