Former Grammys CEO Mike Greene Accused of Sexual Assault in Lawsuit
Terri McIntyre, a former Recording Academy executive, alleges Greene sexually assaulted her multiple times during her employment from 1994 to 1996.
- Terri McIntyre, a former executive director of the Los Angeles chapter of the Recording Academy, has filed a lawsuit against former Grammys CEO Mike Greene and the Recording Academy, accusing Greene of sexually assaulting her multiple times when she was his employee.
- The lawsuit alleges that Greene sexually harassed and assaulted McIntyre over a two-year period from 1994 to 1996, and that the Recording Academy was negligent and attempted to cover up the claims.
- McIntyre is suing Greene for sexual battery, battery and assault and is suing the Academy for negligent hiring, supervision and retention, negligence, harassment on the basis of sex/gender and failure to take all reasonable steps to prevent harassment.
- This is the second lawsuit against the Recording Academy and its former executives in the past month. In November, an anonymous Jane Doe accuser claimed that Neil Portnow, Greene’s successor, drugged and raped her in 2018.
- The allegations against Greene date back to when McIntyre started her job at the Recording Academy in 1994. She claims that Greene told her that he expected her to perform sex acts for him in order to remain employed and progress at the Academy.
