Zuckerberg’s Head of security Liam Booth has been accused of sexual misconduct.

Liam Booth who worked under President Barack Obama committed sexual harassment and has made racist and other derogatory remarks about Zuckerberg’s wife, Priscilla Chan, and other staffers. One of the former staffers, who worked as an executive assistant to Booth, says they witnessed Booth utter a sexually demeaning comment toward another staff member of Zuckerberg’s, who is gay, and to, later on, have groped and inappropriately touched the man at the Palo Alto sushi restaurant Nobu last year. The former security staffer is also accusing of Booth of repeatedly finding reasons to harass her at the workplace, like telling other members of the staff to inform her she had to change clothing because it was distracting. The security staffer says Bloom fired her for “rolling her eyes in a meeting” and complaining about a negative write-up.

Booth, who is not in any way affiliated with Facebook proper, is also being accused by the second former employee, a member of Zuckerberg’s household staff who resigned after going on medical leave earlier this year, of using “it” instead of a transgender staff member’s preferred pronoun and using demeaning language when referring to the individual when speaking to other staffers. Additionally, Booth allegedly made a remark about Chan’s ethnicity when referencing her driving ability, and allegedly once claimed, “he “didn’t trust black people .”Booth has allegedly made numerous other racist and sexist remarks spanning a variety of topics. Those include the diversity efforts of the chief executive and his wife’s philanthropy organization, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, for which Booth is also chief of security, and the Black Lives Matter movement, according to the former staffers.
