NEW York, May 15, 2023 (Bee News Daily)– A second woman has filed a sexual assault case in New York seeking monetary damages against a high-profile supporter of former President Donald J. Trump. Attorney Rudy Giuliani has been sued by a former employee who alleges that Giuliani sexually assaulted and harassed her. She also alleges wage theft and other misconduct and going on “alcohol-drenched rants that included sexist, racist, and antisemitic remarks,” many of which were allegedly recorded.
Noelle Dunphy said she began working for Giuliani in 2019 as his director of business development. Giuliani “began abusing Ms. Dunphy almost immediately after she started working for” him, according to her lawsuit.
“He made clear that satisfying his sexual demands — which came virtually anytime, anywhere — was an absolute requirement of her employment and of his legal representation,” the lawsuit said.
According to Dunphy, Giuliani promised her a $1 million annual salary but the offer came with a catch: Giuliani was in the midst of an acrimonious divorce and he told Dunphy that her pay would have to be deferred and her employment kept “secret” until the divorce proceedings finished. He claimed that his “crazy” ex-wife and her lawyers were watching his cash flow and that his ex-wife would “attack” and “retaliate” against any female employee that Giuliani hired, the lawsuit said.
Part of the job required Dunphy to record her interactions with Giuliani “anytime, anywhere, as well as Giuliani’s interactions with others,” the lawsuit said.
