Sued for $50 million..Smokey say it aint’ so….

**CassTechGrad** · May-07-25, 09:34 AM

4 former housekeepers of Smokey Robinson say that the Motown star repeatedly sexually assaulted and raped them in his home between 2007 and 2024.

The lawsuit seeks at least $50 million in damages over the alleged assaults, a hostile work environment, illegally long hours, and lack of pay.

I guess they must have gotten fired from their jobs at EconoLodge!

So some claims are 18 years old???

Same trigger words,
Hostile work environment, assaults. The rest are non-

The time-frame factor has never negated the other cases unless it was necessary for it do so!

Seems to me everyone was satisfied with the 'arrangement' until someone could no longer keep up their end of the bargain. Last I heard there's no unemployment compensation to go with that job.

Isn't this guy an asshole who always trash talks Detroit?

He knows it when he's cruising together with those housekeepers.

Moral: Praise Detroit when copping a feel or helping oneself to the help.

Apparently some are claimed valid. Recall the case of Blasey Ford vs. Kavanaugh:

A summer of 1982....

Then sometimes the truth comes out 'years' later!

Mangum says she lied about 2006 Duke rape...

Good points. Here's another shocker from about 38 years ago.

I watched an ancestry show with him a few years back, "So Who Do You Think You Are" and he came across as genuinely creepy.

Again, not relevant to THIS case.

My wife and I were watching the story and she said "It doesn't surprise me. He's always given me a creepy vibe."
