Subordinate Female Employee Claims "Forced Sexual Acts During Work"

A woman who worked under former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani has caused a stir by claiming she was forced to engage in sexual acts while on the job.


According to foreign media including the AP News on the 16th (local time), a woman named Noel Dunphy alleged in a 70-page complaint submitted to the court that she was continuously subjected to sexual demands by former Mayor Giuliani.


Dunphy worked as Giuliani's Director of Business Development and PR consultant for two years starting in 2019, and it is reported that she suffered such abuse from the very beginning of her employment.

Dunphy also stated that Giuliani promised her an annual salary of $1 million (approximately 1.3389 billion KRW) in 2019, but she was informed that her pay would be delayed until Giuliani’s divorce was finalized.


Dunphy described Giuliani as a "heavy drinker and womanizer who relies on Viagra." According to Dunphy’s claims, Giuliani ranked fulfilling sexual demands as the top hiring requirement.


She also said that on her first day of work, Giuliani kissed her in the back seat of his black sports utility vehicle (SUV) and demanded that she provide sexual favors during calls with celebrity friends or clients.


Additionally, Dunphy said Giuliani required her to work wearing only a bikini or short shorts patterned with the American flag.


Dunphy stated that she has secured numerous audio recordings as evidence to support her claims. However, Giuliani’s side strongly denied all allegations raised by Dunphy.


Giuliani’s spokesperson said in a statement, "We categorically deny the claims made by Dunphy," and added, "We plan to utilize all possible legal remedies and counterclaims."


The scale of the lawsuit is estimated to be at least $10 million (approximately 13.4 billion KRW), including $2 million (approximately 2.682 billion KRW) in unpaid wages.



Meanwhile, Giuliani, a former prosecutor, served as former President Trump’s personal lawyer and filed over 50 lawsuits in battleground states to overturn the 2020 election results, but all were dismissed.
