Hedge fund manager Crispin Odey has filed a defamation lawsuit against the Financial Times newspaper, almost a year after it accused him of sexually assaulting and harassing more than a dozen women who had worked with him. Odey’s libel suit was filed at the High Court in London today, and he denies all the allegations made against him.
The FT published its investigation into Odey on 10th June last year, as the cover story of its FT Weekend Magazine supplement (no. 1,026). The magazine’s stark headline read: “Crispin Odey has got away with assaulting and harassing women for 25 years”. The article, titled “THE GAMBLER” (pp. 18–25), was written by Madison Marriage, Antonia Cundy, and Paul Caruana Galizia.
