Lil’ Kim famously once said “I believe in money, power, and respect. First you get the money. Then you get the … power. After you get the … power [people] will respect you.” For some, money and power are interchangeable. But along with the respect, money and power can also get you ill-repute. Some very rich men come to mind. Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Roger Ailes. Other than their obscene wealth, another common theme of these infamously rich men, is that of sexual misconduct. Being credibly accused of sexual harassment or assault seems to be a hefty price some billionaires are willing to pay to play.

On the continuum of sexual misconduct, there are sexual harassers and then there is Alki David, billionaire heir to the Coca-Cola bottling fortune, who has long been a controversial figure in the entertainment industry. A series of eye-popping jury verdicts against David and his businesses have catapulted David to the top of the sexual harassment food chain. As the founder of FilmOn, a streaming service, and Hologram USA, a company specializing in holographic performances, David’s ventures have often been overshadowed by his extreme legal battles. Over the past decade, he has faced multiple lawsuits, particularly concerning allegations of sexual harassment, assault and workplace misconduct. For his part, David considers himself the self-appointed ambassador for the “wronged” men of the #MeToo movement.
