Lawyer who worked with Elphicke before he became MP says he was known as ‘office sex-pest’
Concerns about the behaviour of disgraced former Tory MP Charlie Elphicke were raised with a prestigious UK law firm he worked for before entering politics, according to a lawyer who accuses him of sexual harassment.
Elphicke was jailed last month for sexual assault. Fifteen years ago, a former colleague cited Elphicke’s conduct as her reason for leaving Reed Smith LLP. She now wonders if others would not have suffered had his behaviour been “nipped in the bud”.
