Ex-Aide to Giuliani Sues Him for Demanding Sexual Favors; She Claims To Have Recordings of Racist, Antisemitic Rants

A former employee of Rudolph Giuliani, in a lawsuit filled with salacious details about his sexual proclivities and kinks, is alleging that the former New York mayor and personal lawyer to President Trump employed her at his consulting firm for two years without pay and demanded regular sexual favors throughout.In the lawsuit, filed in New York State court, Noelle Dunphy alleges that Mr. Giuliani hired her in January 2019 as a business development specialist and assistant. He offered to pay her $1 million a year and represent her pro bono in a lawsuit she had pending against an abusive former partner, the lawsuit alleges.The only catch, according to the complaint, is that her employment had to be kept secret and the salary deferred to prevent what he allegedly called his “crazy” ex-wife and her lawyers from finding out about his cash flow.Over the course of the following two years, Ms. Dunphy alleges that Mr. Giuliani “made clear that satisfying his sexual demands — which came virtually anytime, anywhere — was an absolute requirement of her employment and of his legal representation.”A representative released a statement on Mr. Giuliani’s behalf refuting the allegations in the lawsuit categorically. “Giuliani vehemently and completely denies the allegations in the complaint and plans to thoroughly defend against these allegations,” it said. “This is pure harassment and an attempt at extortion.”The lawsuit describes Mr. Giuliani as a “functioning” alcoholic who drank day and night and popped Viagra almost as often. “In addition to his sexual demands, Giuliani went on alcohol-drenched rants that included sexist, racist, and antisemitic remarks, which made the work environment unbearable,” the complaint alleges. “Many of these comments were recorded.”Ms. Dunphy said that as his personal assistant, Mr. Giuliani gave her access to his personal and professional emails and that she was regularly able to read communications between the former mayor and many of the main players in the Trump administration, as well as the former president’s family.Other emails to which she was privy, Ms. Dunplhy alleges, include communications with Fox News notables such as Rupert Murdoch, Sean Hannity, and Tucker Carlson, as well as the president of Turkey and presidential candidates from Ukraine.Ms. Dunphy also described Mr. Giuliani forcing her to perform oral sex while he was on speaker telephone calls with many of his friends and clients, including Mr. Trump. “Giuliani told Ms. Dunphy that he enjoyed engaging in this conduct while on the telephone because it made him ‘feel like Bill Clinton,’” the complaint alleges.Mr. Dunphy relates one conversation on February 7, 2018, in which Mr. Giuliani claimed to be aware of a plan in which Mr. Trump and his allies would claim voter fraud in the event that he lost his bid for re-election.Later that month, the complaint says, “He also asked Ms. Dunphy if she knew anyone in need of a pardon, telling her that he was selling pardons for $2 million, which he and President Trump would split.” He told Ms. Dunphy that she could refer individuals seeking pardons to him, so long as they did not go through ‘the normal channels’ of the Office of the Pardon Attorney, because correspondence going to that office would be subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act,” the complaint says.The lawsuit also claims that Ms. Dunphy has extensive recordings of Mr. Giuliani making antisemitic and racially insensitive comments, along with sexualized references about everyone from Senator Warren to Margaret Thatcher to Secretary Clinton.After two years of employment, Ms. Dunphy alleges, Mr. Giuliani terminated her on January 31, 2021. For her two years of work, she was paid a total of $12,000 — in cash, she says. She is seeking some $10 million in damages for sexual harassment, wage theft, and a host of other alleged infractions.
