BOSTON - Celebrity chef and former television star Mario Batali appeared in a Boston courtroom on Friday, where a not-guilty plea was entered on his behalf to a criminal charge that he forcibly groped and kissed a woman at a restaurant in 2017.
It is the first criminal case against Batali since the 2017 emergence of the #MeToo movement, which has exposed widespread patterns of sexual harassment or abuse of women in multiple spheres of American life and ended the careers of dozens of powerful men in media, politics, entertainment and business.
“The victim stated she was uncomfortable and that it was shocking to her that this was happening,” the complaint said.Batali was released on his own recognizance on the condition that he avoid contact with the alleged victim. At the request of Batali’s lawyer, a judge said that requirement would be waived should he need to testify in her lawsuit.
He should be on trial for wearing fuckin' Crocs all the god-damned time...
“Look. My bad. I misinterpreted when she said she wanted the big cannoli”
Is he wearing crocs though?!?!?!?!!?
No one ordered the groping, Mario, for f—’s sake.
