New lawsuit alleges Robert De Niro subjected his former assistant to 'verbally abusive' and 'sexually-charged' behavior, including leaving her voicemails filled with vulgar language.
Robert De Niro subjected his former assistant to"verbally abusive" and"sexually-charged" behavior, including leaving her voicemails filled with vulgar language, a new lawsuit alleges.
According to her lawsuit, Robinson began working for De Niro at his company, Canal Productions, in 2008 when she was 25 and was subjected to"years of gender discrimination and harassment." "On the heels of Ms. Robinson’s complaints of gender discrimination, De Niro had Canal Productions file an abusive, preemptive lawsuit against her," her suit says."The lawsuit concocted false allegations designed to inhibit Ms. Robinson from pursuing her claims, destroy her reputation, and obliterate her job prospects."
Robinson alleges that De Niro made vulgar comments, joked about Viagra, directed her to imagine him on the toilet and subjected her to gratuitous physical contact.
