Lost’s Henry Ian Cusick sued for sexual harassment
Is there a curse on the “Lost” cast? Is Hawaii just too pretty to leave the show unscathed? Four of the cast have been charged with DUIs (three of whom were prompted killed off) and now Henry Ian Cusick, who plays Desmond on the show, has been accused of sexual harassment.
A suit was filed late last week in Los Angeles Superior Court. Chelsea Stone, who had been employed by ABC for 10 years, claims when she reported Cusick’s bad behavior, she was fired two weeks later.
According to the court documents: “Such harassment included but not limited to the following conduct: Cusick placed his hand on Plaintiff’s buttocks. Cusick then began to caress the back of Plaintiffs body while making moaning sounds. Cusick then placed his face on top of Plaintiff’s breasts, moving his face from side to side.
“Cusick then squeezed Plaintiff’s breasts with his hands. Cusick further kissed Plaintiff on the mouth. At all times during the sexual harassment Plaintiff communicated to Cusick that his sexual advances were unacceptable.”
In the lawsuit, Stone seeks unspecified damages from the actor, ABC, and Grass Skirt Productions, though J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot is not named.
