Smokey files a countersuit...
From The Wrap
Smokey Robinson filed a $500 million countersuit Wednesday in against four former housekeepers who accused the Motown legend of repeatedly sixually assaulting them over several years.
The women filed a civil lawsuit against Robinson in Los Angeles earlier this month, sparking a criminal investigation that is ongoing. Robinson also filed a motion to dismiss the womens’ lawsuits, arguing that they were improperly allowed to remain anonymous.
The countersuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court and seeking $500 million in damages, describes a familial relationship with the housekeepers, including loving text messages in which they wish the “Tears of a Clown” singer happy birthday, invite him to their children’s graduation celebrations and partake in vacations at the Robinsons’ expense.
