A second lawsuit has been filed against Timothy Pearson, a top aide to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, alleging discrimination, sexual harassment, and retaliation. The lawsuit was filed by retired NYPD sergeant Michael Ferrari in the New York Supreme Court in Manhattan. This comes after another retired NYPD sergeant, Roxanne Ludemann, claimed harassment and retaliation against Pearson in a previous lawsuit.
While Ferrari did not report unwanted advances from Pearson, he stated that he witnessed or was informed of Pearson sexually harassing female colleagues in the Mayor's Office of Municipal Services Assessment. The lawsuit also mentioned that Ferrari was assigned to monitor Pearson's behavior around women in the office.
