Carroll Shelby Accused of Sexual Assualt

***SMWS6TA*** · 08-03-2011, 01:08 PM

TMZ reports that Angelica Smith, who began working as a receptionist for the now 88-year-old Shelby in 2005, is accusing the performance parts and car manufacturer of treating her as a “personal servant” and forcing her to go on errands to collect liquor and pornography.
Smith’s complaint adds that Shelby ran a “pervasively hostile work environment” and that he groped her on at least one occasion. It goes on to claim that a fellow employee once drugged and raped her at Shelby’s home and that Shelby “did not take any corrective action,” when she reported the incident to him. The alleged rapist is also a target of the lawsuit. Sometime after the incident, Smith was relieved of her position at Shelby’s company.

In response to the lawsuit, Shelby’s lawyer, M. Neil Cummings, issued the following statement: “Carroll Shelby is disappointed that such wild and fantastical allegations have been made by a former employee. The fact is that her position was no longer required due to Mr. Shelby's age, health and work schedule. But this apparently disgruntled former employee and her counsel have chosen to turn this into yet another prematurely publicized, frivolous lawsuit against a public figure. Carroll Shelby has full confidence in the judicial system and believes that the truth will come out through the legal process.”In addition to the sports cars built by Shelby American Inc., Shelby’s name currently appears on a model that is sold by the Ford Motor Company, the Mustang Shelby GT500.

Smith is seeking $5 million in damages.

Sooo she got drugged/raped and wanted her boss to take care of it, instead reporting it to the police, who's job it is to investigate and take "corrective action". I'm thinking that's code for she got tanked and woke up naked next to a co-worker.

She's probably in debt and since she was fired, she wants compensation.

***SMWS6TA*** · 08-05-2011, 07:49 AM

she's double screwed if she can't prove her case. TX just signed into law, penalties for frivolous law suits. She could end up paying for her and his lawyers plus fines.....

Definetely has enough cash to pay someone to do it right and never find out. Just food for thought!

It's not considered assualt til you slap her in the face with it...

**KahanaReef** · 08-05-2011, 01:55 PM

What I don't understand, is if in fact this actually happened, why the hell didn't she quit? I know there are many cases of rape that go unreported for various reasons. But, she stays and waits around to get fired? I call bullshit too.

Balls or wang? I think it depends upon which one is used in the act and the intentions there of.

You ever really hit a woman hard in the forehead with it? It makes a "thwack" sound and DOES hurt (you not them). It might also end up with you not getting any again that evening or mid afternoon.
