Four women, including a personal assistant and three former housekeepers for Smokey Robinson, have accused the iconic musician of sexual assault, claiming incidents occurred at his homes in California and Las Vegas. They filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles seeking $50 million in damages. The anonymous plaintiffs, all Hispanic and low-wage workers, alleged they were vulnerable and lacked resources to report the assaults. Allegedly, Robinson's wife also knew about the incidents yet continued mistreating the women. Concerns about immigration status hindered their ability to report the behavior. No criminal charges have been filed as of yet.
The lawsuit filed by a personal assistant and three former housekeepers accuses Smokey Robinson of multiple sexual assaults, seeking $50 million in damages.
John W. Harris, attorney for the women, noted their vulnerable positions as low-wage Hispanic workers made them more susceptible to workplace sexual violence.
