Monta Ellis, Warriors To Be Sued For Sexual Harrassment
Monta Ellis and the Golden State Warriors are being sued for sexual harassment.
The plaintiff’s lawyer, Burton F. Boltuch, sent out a press release on Tuesday announcing the suit and the press conference, which will take place on Wednesday morning. Boltuch claims that he has photo evidence of sexual harassment by Ellis, sent from Ellis’ cell phone to the accuser. Said Boltuch, about the photo:
“You will be shocked when you see it...It’s pretty disgusting and graphic.”
The Warriors are being accused of covering up for Ellis, and the plaintiff -- a former employee of the team -- claims that she was let go from her position with the team because of the incident.
