On October 8th, representatives for Janel Grant reached out to WWE to request that any current nondisclosure agreements be waived in their lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE, and John Laurinaitis. Back in January, Grant filed her lawsuit accusing McMahon of sexual assault and sex trafficking.
A spokesperson for Grant, Kendra Barkoff Lamy, was a recent guest on the “Going Ringside” podcast where she was asked about whether the former WWE Chairman’s relationship with convicted felon Donald Trump might become an issue if Trump wins the 2024 election. She said,
“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) Epstein survivors. This is sort of what I do. There are no politics at play. This is exactly what it is, which is human trafficking.”
When asked if the former President could pardon McMahon if he gets into office, Lamy replied with the following, “I think that, hopefully, the facts will be followed and that the law will be followed, and that he will be held accountable.”
As many of you know by now, a federal investigation is currently ongoing as it pertains to McMahon and some additional allegations that have been made by numerous other women. This is different from the civil lawsuit that has been filed by Janel Grant.
