“Every sexual assault is a degradation of the victim,” said State Attorney Katherine Fernandez
Rundle in a statement. “That is what so often makes these victims so fragile. But to think that a media producer would use his position to gain sexual access to women seeking a television job seems like a sad throw-back to scandals that I hoped we were already past thanks to the effort of the “Me Too”
movement.”

Albis-Masot is accused of telling women that he would audition them for a part in the very popular show, but they needed to see him personally.
