Business partner of a serial rape suspect paid cops $2k a week to look the other way, suit says

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation/Blount County

The business partner of a serial rape suspect allegedly sent $2,000 a week in payments to Tennessee police officers for them to turn a blind eye to his targeting of women, a bombshell lawsuit says.

The latest allegations come in a class action lawsuit connected to the case of Tennessee businessman Sean Williams, 52, who has been accused of owning photos and videos of 52 women being sexually assaulted by Mr Williams. Some of the alleged victims also appeared to be named on a list labeled as “raped” found in his apartment during a September 2020 search warrant.
