A former employee of President Donald Trump’s campaign claims in a Manhattan federal court filing that the nondisclosure agreement she signed upon joining the campaign has been “weaponized” by Trump’s attorneys in a separate state court sexual harassment suit.

In the suit she filed in Manhattan state Supreme Court in November 2017, California resident Jessica Denson alleges a former male superior, Camilo Jaime Sandoval, and the campaign itself slandered, harassed and sexually discriminated against her, in violation of New York City’s human rights laws.
