Smells fishy - 13 year ongoing abuse? In the States where one can just walk to the police freely? After paying $10M out of $40M extortion to her? Stripper with only one sexual partner? Red lights everywhere... How is it possible to terminate a guy in the US with unproven allegations? Guilty by default? I am not saying he isn't, but was there a due process already?

>How is it possible to terminate a guy in the US with unproven allegations? The allegations of that specific lawsuit may be unproven but the previous "settlement" of $40m "hush money" that's attached as an exhibit to the end of the lawsuit (see the scribd link) appears to be factual and not a forgery of MG's signature. Since many reasonable employers wouldn't hire someone with such a settlement made public, it logically follows that they would also fire someone for such a document damaging the company image. Any judgement of innocence or guilt on the allegations down the road is irrelevant to the damage done now.

Do you really not understand how human trafficking and slavery works? Getting out of that situation is not nearly as easy as "just going to the police". There's lots of books on the subject you can read to learn more. > How is it possible to terminate a guy in the US with unproven allegations? At-will employment. Anyone can be fired at any time for any reason. Innocent until proven guilty applies to the legal system, not to employment.

  For the most part, sex trafficking doesn't seem to work - it's one of those things that exists more in the media than reality. There's a huge activism industry and massive amounts of police work around it, but when you dig into the details there's just nothing behind it all. Statistics fall apart - supposed US government stats are just them reporting that the press said something, which was a quote from some politician's speech with no apparent basis, and so on. High-profile stories with films and activist organisations around them like Somali Mam are verifiable lies. Busts actually just arrest the women who are having sex for money. Time and time again, there's just nothing actually there. Honestly, it's probably just not viable. Too high on the police priority list and involves the victims interacting with too many people not in on the operation. Normal labour trafficking is so much safer
