On October 8th, Representatives for Janel Grant are asking for nondisclosure agreements to be waived in their lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE, and John Laurinaitis. Grant is accusing McMahon of sexual assault and sex trafficking. A lawsuit was filed by Grant in January.
The lawsuit is currently on pause as McMahon is under federal investigation.
Kendra Barkoff Lamy, a spokesperson for Grant, spoke to Scott Johnson of Going Ringside and was asked if McMahon's relationship with Presidential nominee Donald Trump might come into play.
"There is no politics at play here. This is a straight case where a woman was human trafficked. That is exactly what this is. I have worked with a lot of survivors over the years. I've represented Harvey Weinstein actresses, I've represented (Jeffrey) Epistein survivors. This is sort of what I do. There are no politics at play. This is exactly what it is, which is human trafficking," she said.
Asked if she was worried that Trump might pardon McMahon if he was to be elected President, Lamy replied, "I think that, hopefully, the facts will be followed and that the law will be followed, and that he will be held accountable."
Lamy previously spoke with John Pollock and Brandon Thurston about the case. Fans can read her comments from that interview by clicking here.
