Dear Speaker Silver:
This office has been retained by Jamie L. Campbell, Kimberly
Snickers and Annalise C.Freling, three former employees of New York
State Assemblyman Dennis Gabryszak and ishereby filing a formal
complaint against the Assemblyman and the New York State
Assembly.
According to my clients, there also appears to be a minimum of
two more former employeeswho will be coming forward with similar
complaints in the near future. This complaint is broughtto you in
your capacity as Speaker of the Assembly. A Notice of Claim has
also been filed withregard to this matter naming Assemblyman
Gabryszak, the New York State Assembly and the
State of New York as Respondents.
Throughout their employment, from 2011 through October, 2013,
the three youngwomen were subjected to a pattern of outrageous and
appalling behavior by AssemblymanGabryszak. His actions created
such a hostile and offensive workplace environment that allthree
women were forced to resign from their employment. Assemblyman
Gabryszaks conductwas so severe, persistent and pervasive that it
rose to the level of sexual harassment. Inaddition to his direct
behavior toward the women, the married man of 37 years was
continuouslysubjecting them, against their will, to stories of his
escapades with prostitutes, strip clubs, affairswith Assemblywomen
and massages with happy endings. The three women, who are allyoung
enough to be Assemblyman Gabryszaks daughters, were so upset with
his behavior thatthey had no alternative than to walk away from
their jobs, losing income, health insurance and
other employment benefits and they suffered emotional injuries
as well.
In order to best describe Assemblyman Gabrszyks actions,
attached please findEXHIBIT A, which describes his behavior toward
Kimberly Snickles, EXHIBIT B, whichdescribes his behavior toward
Jamie L. Campbell and EXHIBIT C, which describes his behaviortoward
Annalise C. Freling. After reviewing this documentation, would you
kindly have one ofyour representatives contact my office to discuss
this matter in detail.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
Yours,
Johnny G. Destino, Esq.
