US EditionSmokey Robinson’s lawyer says rape allegations against him are ‘vile’ and ‘false’
- Four former housekeepers filed a lawsuit on Tuesday in Los Angeles accusing Smokey Robinson of sexual assault and rape over many years at his home.
- The women feared reporting Robinson due to his celebrity status, fear of job loss, public shame, and immigration concerns, which delayed their complaints.
- Robinson, an 85-year-old Motown icon and Hall of Fame member, had a major career with the Miracles and as a solo artist with hits like "Tears of a Clown."
- Robinson's attorney labeled the allegations as "vile" and "false," calling the lawsuit an attempt to extract money, while the women's lawyer insisted Robinson is a "serial and sick rapist."
- The lawsuit demands a minimum of $50 million in damages related to claims of sexual misconduct, unlawful detention, and gender-based harm, while Robinson’s attorney intends to file a motion to have the case thrown out.
