Smokey Robinson Files $500 Million Counter-Complaint Against Former Employees, Claiming Slander and Elder Abuse


Smokey Robinson has filed a $500 million counter-claim against his former female employees who accused him of sexual battery and abuse.

Robinson filed his cross-complaint with his with Frances against the Jane Does and their legal representatives, accusing them of slander, intentional infliction of emotional distress and financial elder abuse. They state that at least one of the women left employment and then returned, “undercutting their claims that Plaintiffs were too afraid to report any alleged abuse.” The counter-claim suggests that the women could have potentially been behind the theft of financial records and gold coins, and says that one woman took Frances’ cell phone and deleted all of their text exchanges, photos and identifying information. “The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Special Victims Bureau is actively investigating criminal allegations involving William Robinson AKA ‘ Smokey Robinson,'” read a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
