Leslie Moonves Fined $15,000 for Obtaining Secret Intel on LAPD Sex Assault Investigation
Leslie Moonves, the former CEO of CBS, was fined $15,000 for obtaining confidential information about a sex assault investigation.
Leslie Moonves, the former CEO of CBS, was fined $15,000 on Wednesday by the L.A. City Ethics Commission for obtaining secret information in 2017 about an LAPD sex assault investigation of which he was the target. In November 2017, at the height of the #MeToo movement, former TV executive Phyllis Gottlieb walked into the Hollywood LAPD station to report that Moonves had assaulted her in the 1980s. After conducting its own inquiry, the commission found Moonves responsible for three violations of the city ethics code, including charges of aiding and abetting the release of confidential information and inducing another person to misuse their position.
