TRIGGER WARNING - SEXUAL ABUSE
Janel Gran⛎t's attorney states ಌmore alleged victims have been in contact with her.
McMahon and WWE are both named in a lawsuit by former employee Janel Grant, who alleged she was🔜 sexually assaulted 💙and trafficked by Mr. McMahon. The lawsuit is currently on pause as McMahon is presently being federally investigated.
Recently,, J🎶anel Grant's leg🃏al representation to discuss the case. Callis discussed multiple topics in the interview, including noting that several other alleged victims have reached out.
“I can say generally Janel has been courageous in speaking out about her situation,” Callis said. “Her hope is she is an example to other people who feel that they are not alone and they can speak out themselves and we have been seeing that. I have had several people contact me and we are doing vetting and going through that process.”
Callis would then begin 💟discussing NDA's, whiꦇle noting that she could not talk about Janel Grant's specifically. However, Callis believes that NDA's have been weaponized.
“They have been weaponized and I think that’s why recent laws have been passed in order to protect men and women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted in the workplace."
Callis continued, once again addressing the recent legislation put in place to protect those sexually😼 harassed or assaulted in the worꦉkplace.
“When you’re faced with a multi-national corporation or a multi-billion dollar company, there’s a lot of road blocks that you will see when you are faced with protecting your children and feeding them,” Callis said. “It’s an unfortunate situation people find themselves in but recent legislation, case law and precedent should make these people feel better about their situation. Some companies want to characterize workers as independent contractors, but it’s not as clear cut, in many of these instances the courts find they are indeed employees.”
In the latest update on the case, Dr. Carlon Colker is seeking dismissal of Janel Grant's petition. You can read more about that here.
