My daughter Eva was the victim of this horrible man. At the time, I was truly horrified, so scandalized that I wanted to do something, but my daughter said, 'Absolutely not! You do not know the evil he is capable of.
Green wrote in her statement, "I met him for a business meeting in Paris at which he behaved inappropriately, and I had to push him off. I have not discussed this before because I wanted to maintain my privacy, but I understand it is important to do so as I hear about other women's experiences."
