Clayton Howard is a former male s-- worker.
Howard noted in his video how Ventura filed a motion to dismiss his lawsuit, "but has not disputed any of my allegations."
"Her motion to dismiss attacks me on the timeliness of the allegations, stating now 'it's too late to charge her,'" he explained.

The singer scored a $20 million settlement from the record producer last year.
"I am no liar. I did send that text to Alex Fine and it's not because Cassandra Ventura is a truthful woman. It was because Alex Fine is in love with [Cassie]. He had no knowledge of the truth of what really happened. He wasn't in those rooms [where the freak-offs occurred]," he went on.
"I knew she was lying from the beginning when I first heard the media reports," Howard scoffed. "The real victims are the men who were manipulated by Jane Does and Cassandra Ventura — the dozens of men this happened to for years."
"Cassie admitted to s-- trafficking me and lying about me," Howard claimed.
