Last November, the comedian admitted to sexually harassing multiple women comedians and colleagues. He'd repeatedly mastubrated in front of several women with whom he worked.
"These stories are true," Louis said after the allegations were revealed. "At the time, I said to myself that what I did was okay because I never showed a woman my d**k without asking first, which is also true. But what I learned later in life, too late, is that when you have power over another person, asking them to look at your dick isn’t a question. It’s a predicament for them. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly.”
