Earlier this week, four unnamed women, all of whom worked at housekeepers for the 85-year-old pop legend Smokey Robinson, sued Robinson for a list of offenses including rape, sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment, gender violence, and a hostile work environment, among other things. The lawsuit, which also names Robinson’s wife Frances, claims that Robinson committed dozens of ritualistic assaults between 2007 and 2024. Robinson has now responded to the lawsuit, as has his lawyer.
