Doug Emhoff Faces Allegations of Past Abuse and Misconduct

Reports of domestic violence and workplace misconduct against Doug Emhoff have surfaced, sparking criticism over media silence.

Doug Emhoff, husband of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, is accused of slapping a former girlfriend at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012.
Three anonymous witnesses, friends of the alleged victim, have supported the claim, but Emhoff's representative denies the allegations.
Emhoff is also accused of inappropriate behavior and misogyny at his former Los Angeles law firm, where he allegedly favored male employees and excluded women from certain events.
Critics, including former President Donald Trump, have condemned the lack of media coverage, comparing it to the intense scrutiny faced by Brett Kavanaugh during his Supreme Court confirmation.
Domestic violence prevention groups and media figures who previously praised Emhoff's model of masculinity have remained largely silent on the allegations.
