Los Angeles police are investigating Smokey Robinson following allegations of sexual assault made by four former housekeepers. The women claim he assaulted them repeatedly between 2007 and 2024 across three residences. They have also accused Robinson and his wife of labor violations related to minimum wage and overtime pay. Robinson's attorney has rejected the claims as false and baseless, asserting that the lawsuit aims to exploit the singer for financial gain. Despite the investigation's early stage, it adds pressure on the 85-year-old Motown star, who continues to release music and tour.
'We feel confident that a determination will be made that Mr Robinson did nothing wrong, and that this is a desperate attempt to prejudice public opinion and make even more of a media circus than the plaintiffs were previously able to create.'
'The unnamed women filed a lawsuit last week alleging that the Motown star was a serial and sick rapist who had assaulted them on numerous occasions between 2007 and 2024, across three residences.'
