A wealthy Montreal businessman who stepped down from the tech company he founded after being accused of sexually exploiting underage girls is facing a new lawsuit.
Robert Miller, according to this latest legal proceeding filed Wednesday in Superior Court, was the alleged mastermind behind the so-called "Miller Network" described in the lawsuit as "a complex and organized network whose main objective was to recruit underage girls to satisfy Robert Miller's sexual urges."
After the report was published, a statement from Future Electronics, based in the Montreal suburb of Pointe-Claire, saidin order to " focus on his very serious health issues and devote his attention to the protection of his reputation." "Robert Miller always took the time to get to know and take an interest in his victims in order to better control them, in particular by understanding their passions and ambitions and then promising to make those dreams come true."The lawsuit described the plaintiff's unsuccessful attempts to leave the situation she found herself in. For example, in 2002, she had a boyfriend, who found out about her relationship with Miller.
The lawsuit noted Forbes estimates Robert Miller's personal fortune in 2023 at US$1.8 billion and nearly US$2.5 billion in 2011. Sam Abrams was allegedly the "right-hand man" of Miller who served as a "direct intermediary between the victims, including the plaintiff, and Robert Miller, meanwhile, Helmut Lippmann, Future Electronics' executive vice-president, was also "highly involved" in the Miller Network, and allegedly provided financial support to the alleged victims.
