Over a 25-year period, Nygard used his company's influence, money, and employees to recruit adult and minor-aged female victims. The indictment accused Mr. Nygard of sexually assaulting some victims while associates assaulted or drugged others.
The FBI raided his company headquarters during its investigation of sex trafficking accusations against him, made by multiple women.
Nygard also had a home in the Bahamas, where he has been in a legal battle with his neighbor over property and noise complaints. He has claimed that the neighbor was to be blamed for allegations, however, The Times has documented complaints over 4 decades, starting before the neighbor feud.
At this time, over 80 women have signed as plaintiffs in the case. Many of these women speak about similar incidents; being raped when underage during a party at his home, being raped and held against their will after visiting the company.
