In other news from the gorilla litigation front,
another former employee of the Gorilla Foundation has sued in San Mateo county, alleging that she was repeatedly told to "disrobe in front of Koko the 'talking' ape."
"Redwood City attorney Todd Roberts, representing the Gorilla Foundation, said, "We're confident there's no merit to either of these lawsuits. We are not going to dignify the allegations with a response." One wonders whether he will keep saying that if more former employees come forward.
Oddly, no word in the article on whether legal experts expect Koko to testify at any trial. Plainly, Koko could corroborate either side's position.
Koko in happier, non-litigious times.
