An anonymous ex-APA employee is suing the agency, claiming it was a "sexually abusive environment" and she was threatened with firing if she reported a sexual assault by a client to law enforcement.

She is suing APA, its CEO Jim Gosnell, execs Paul Santana and Josh Humiston and client Michael Hammond. Doe says she worked as Gosnell's assistant for almost two years and was forced to endure mood swings which often became violent. On one occasion in January 2017, she claims "Gosnell threw a trash can filled with trash and a glass at [her] and called her a 'c—.'" When she reported the behavior to HR, she says her complaints "were met with excuses, indifference or opaque warnings that if she continued to complain about such behavior, she would not advance at APA.

Doe says the egregious conduct condoned by the agency culminated in her being sexually assaulted by Hammond, COO of Collins Avenue Productions. She says in July 2017 she attended a meeting with him at his office and he thrusted himself on her and forcibly kissed her while groping her hips and breasts.
