Don Lemon sued
-
Nick, let me get two [vodka] Lemon Drops’ and put two fingers in the air.
“Don was sitting with two or three other people, and he looks at me and goes, ‘I’m just trying to have a good time, man.’ I said, ‘Oh, OK, sorry,’ and that was it,’’ Hice said.
“I absolutely wasn’t hitting on him whatsoever,’’ Hice said of Lemon, 53, who is gay and married. “I’m a heterosexual male.”
As alleged in his complaint, Hice, 38, told The Post, “About 5 or 10 minutes later, Don gets up, walks around the bar, comes up right up to me and puts his hands down his board shorts. He rubs himself aggressively, his penis and whatever else down there.”
Lemon then “shoved his index and middle fingers in Plaintiff’s mustache and under Plaintiff’s nose,’’ according to Hice’s suit, which was filed over the weekend.
“And he goes, ‘Do you like p—y or d–k?’ And he kept saying, ‘P or D? P or D?’ He said it three or four times. I’m like, ‘Whoa man, what the hell?’ ” Hice claimed.
The accuser said he was so traumatized that he fled the bar and came back a couple minutes later to find Lemon gone.
Today:

- If some SOB did that to me, I'd kill him. Not hit, not beat, but dead on the spot.
- I sincerely hope it's true and Mr. Lemon is ruined both personally and financially.

Well, not about being gay I'm not. I've been suspected as such, through my life, because I'm awkward socially but always had a friend through my 20s who is in fact gay. Not that he's ever acknowledged it. He propositioned me at some late point and if you don't know awkward then you know it. We haven't spoken since.

The attorney for the man who accused fellow CNN host Don Lemon of a sexually charged assault expects the case to finally end up in court early next year after a prolonged legal process.
It’s been over two years since Dustin Hice filed an explosive lawsuit against Lemon – who is openly gay – accusing the "CNN Tonight" host of assault and battery at a bar on New York's Long Island during the summer of 2018.
"[Lemon] put his hand down the front of his own shorts, and vigorously rubbed his genitalia, removed his hand and shoved his index and middle fingers into Plaintiff's mustache and under Plaintiff's nose," according to the lawsuit, filed Aug. 11, 2019 in Suffolk County Court.
"Lemon intensely pushed his fingers against Plaintiff’s face under Plaintiff’s nose, forcing Plaintiff’s head thrust backward as Defendant repeatedly asked Plaintiff ‘Do you like p---y or d--k?’ While saying this, Mr. Lemon continued to shove his fingers into Plaintiff’s face with aggression and hostility," the suit alleged.
In an answer to the complaint, Lemon denied all wrongdoing and called the suit "frivolous."
A lengthy discovery process and the coronavirus pandemic have kept the case out of court, but Hice’s legal team told Fox News Digital the suit was ongoing and may wind up in court around January 2022.
Lemon’s CNN program has followed Cuomo’s, and the two frequently engage in a nightly handoff during which they discuss current events with playful banter. Last week, veteran television producer Shelley Ross accused Cuomo of sexually harassing her when they worked together at ABC News in 2005. The "Cuomo Prime Time" namesake issued a statement in which he reiterated his apology for the incident 16 years ago.

Am with both of you on this one. There would be blood on the floor.
