Troubled Nikola Founder, Trevor Milton Faces Two S*xual Abuse Complaints

When it rains, it pours and Trevor Milton, founder and former executive chairman of electric truck company, Nikola, will be understanding the phrase better now as he faces two s*xual abuse complaints.

 

We recently reported that Milton resigned from Nikola following investigations of fraud after a private company, Hindenburg Research, released a report concerning him.

 

Now, the troubled tech boss faces s*xual complaint allegations; one of which is from his cousin. According to a CNBC report, Aubrey Ferrin Smith had publicly accused Trevor Milton via social media on 21st September 2020.

 

She said that the tech billionaire had groped her bare br*asts after a family funeral in 1999. Aubrey had been 15 at the time while Milton would have been 17, according to news sources. Aubrey Ferrin Smith had filed a formal complaint against him in Holladay, Utah, where the assault occurred.

The second allegation came from an undisclosed source, whose identity is protected under the victim law. This one had allegedly taken place in 2004. The details reveal that the victim was a 15 years old girl who had been under the employment of Trevor Milton when he was 22 years old.

 

Milton had been running a security company, St. George Security & Alarms, in Utah at the time and Craig Johnson, a former prosecutor representing the two women said about the second accuser; “… he digitally penetrated her v*gina with his fingers, which under Utah law constitutes object r**e.”

 

Milton is denying the allegations and through his spokesperson, Brandon Messina, he claims to have never been in any inappropriate physical contact with anyone in his life.

 

Nikola had gone public in June 2020 and had also reached a deal with Ford Motor. Trevor Milton was worth about $8.6 billion at the time and a new deal with General Motors in September 2020 would have further increased his worth as well.

 

However, everything has seemingly come crashing to the ground. General Motors has said it will continue its discussions with Nikola for a the electric truck deal.
