Jay Smooth did an interview with Kenneth Thompson, the lawyer hired to represent Kim Osorio in her case against The Source.
It's important to understand that the public has only heard about Kim and Michelle, but there are many others. I've been contacted by a bunch of others who want to come forward and join this suit. I have women calling me late at night leaving messages, telling me they want to talk to me and share their story. Many of them have never even met each other, but their accounts are all pretty consistent, the same people and the same acts. I'll give you one example, a boss cannot tell his subordinate to come with him to a hotel. You cannot put pressure on anyone to do something like that.
I think this going to be an important case for the rights of women in the workplace, and it's going to be a wake-up call for the Hip-Hop community. We intend to take this case to trial; there will be no settlement in this case. We intend to take this take this case to jury verdict and make sure a jury will sit there and listen to all of these facts. I'm not even going to respond to some of the comments that were made about my clients, but I'll tell you this: it's all going to be played out in court.
It's on.
So the source has some skeleton's.Go figure.
