From the linked article :

One woman said she worked for Robinson from 2012 until 2024 and was assaulted at least 20 times. Another said she worked for him from 2014 until 2020 and was assaulted at least 23 times.

I don't know, I guess I'm just a tad bit skeptical that these women continued working for him if this were true. So in this case, I would say it ain't so.

Same. If im raped, i certainly dont go back for more. Definitely not 20 more times. Anything like that always is a giant red flag imo.

He's famous and now 85. Not surprised he'd potentially be a dirty old pervert who doesn't care about boundaries. People also need to realize they've got choices in life. Don't choose to work for someone who makes you feel uncomfortable or can't keep their hands to themselves. That's not taking any of the blame off him if this is true but at some point you need to either report what's happening or find another job where your boss isn't grabbing all over you.

Haha, no. I scroll Reddit from time to time and they're too much for me. It's reality though. If Robinson set up a situation where he was nude and pretending to need help and a housekeeper walked in and once near him he pushed her hand on his genitals, the jig is up, so to speak. That's sexual assault and you now know who he really is. You should report it and quit or just quit.
