Swiss billionaire and liberal megadonor Hansjörg Wyss is facing a sexual harassment lawsuit from a now-former female employee in California who claims Wyss groped her, shared unwanted information about his sexual past and then ultimately retaliated against her when she denied his advances.
NEW: Liberal megadonor Hansjorg Wyss is accused of persistently sexually harassing an employee nearly 60 years younger than him.
Wyss, a Swiss national, has contributed $652 million to Democratic dark money groups in recent years.

Former Wyss employee Madison Busby, in a suit filed in San Luis Obispo County last month, claims that the 89-year-old Wyss “deliberately placed his hand on Ms. Busby’s butt and groped her” the first time she was introduced to him in 2019 by her future husband, Bryce Mullins.
“Mr. Wyss proceeded to tell Mr. Mullins in Ms. Busby’s presence about how ‘good’ Ms. Busby’s butt looked in the dress she was wearing,” the lawsuit states.
