Steven Segeal sued for sexual assault, trafficking by former employee; Sexual Assault 101


TMZ is reporting that Steven Seagal is being sued by Kayden for sexual assault and trafficking.

A 23-year-old former model claims she interviewed with Seagal last February for the position of executive assistant. Kayden Nguyen says she got the job, but when she showed up for work, she learned, "Mr. Seagal had been keeping two young female Russian 'Attendants' on staff who were available for his sexual needs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."


Nguyen alleges in her suit, one of the 'Attendants' had recently quit and it was this job -- not executive assistant -- Seagal intended her to fill.

Nguyen claims the very first night on the job, Seagal treated her "as his sex toy." Nguyen says in the lawsuit Seagal, pushed his hands under her skirt, tried fondling her breasts and forced his hand down her pants.

Nguyen says she complained the next morning -- unclear to whom -- but nothing was done.

Nguyen says the next day Seagal did it again, sexually assaulting her and forcing her to consume illegal pills. And she says there were other sexual assaults that followed.

According to the suit, Seagal said, "My wife wouldn't mind if you and I had a sexual relationship."

Nguyen is suing for more than a million bucks.

So far, no comment from Seagal.


Do you known whom you can contact if you were sexually assaulted or harassed at a workplace.. Sexual harassment can be not only physical, but verbal form. Many workplaces have human resources and others who handle cases like these, no matter who they are. If they do not handle it properly, you can go to the police. Do not let it get as far as Nguyen let it. Here is a great article on what to do when sexually assaulted in the workplace.

Insight: If she knew the job would entail giving him sexual services, why didn't she just quit instead of putting herself in that predicament to begin with?
