“She’s Being Inappropriate”: Gay Man Clears His Name After Woman Accuses Him Of Being A Perv

ADVERTISEMENT

A Target employee saw himself involved in a scandal, facing allegations of inappropriate behavior with a customer while on duty.

The customer in question had secretly filmed Mitchell, staging a situation where he allegedly checked her out while she was bending over and blasting him online for it.

Mitchell, who goes by @mitchelliguesss on TikTok, responded by sharing a video in an attempt to clear his name.

Highlights
  • A Target employee in Georgia faces public accusations of inappropriate behavior from a viral video.
  • Mitchell was accused of checking a customer out while on duty.
  • The employee, who is gay, defended himself online, stating the customer's claims are baseless.

As the Target worker explained, it was the woman who had displayed inappropriate behavior towards him.

“So, a couple of months ago, I was at work, doing my job — you know, giving out excellent customer service per me — and this girl walks up,” Mitchell recalled in his video, captioned, “I love being sexually harassed at work.”

    “The way she’s talking is very [different]. She’s being very inappropriate with me… just makes me uncomfortable.”

    Despite this, Mitchell said that he decided to “just try to do [his] job” and help the woman find the product she wanted. 

    Suddenly, the woman bent down to point at something.

    “Her bottom of her dress is cut. I just see her entire f****** ass,” the Target employee said, explaining his shocked reaction captured in the video.

    Then, Mitchell shared that the customer wasn’t his type at all.

    “I am gay. Wrong tree in the wrong neighborhood. Wrong f****** area code. Like no, no thank you,” he said.

    Mitchell cleared his name online, sharing that he’s gay and he had looked at the woman because her backside was exposed

    Mitchell said that, months later, he was approached by a customer who told him he looked familiar.

    At that moment, Mitchell discovered that the woman had shared the video she took of him online.

    “She put this sh** on Onlyfans, and I freaked the f*** out. This potentially could be recognized in this video that makes me look like a pervert for the rest of my life.”

    The customer fired back at Mitchell, stating he was “pissed about nothing” and should “take the free clout,” referring to the millions of views he received after he shared his side of the story.

    “You came into my job and harassed me, okay? You ain’t [going to] sit here and tell me how I am and I’m not [going to] f****** feel about what you did,” Mitchell responded in a subsequent video.

    “I am still trying to speak out against what you did because you are normalizing it, and it is not okay.”

    The customer service worker, who resides in Georgia, explained to his followers why he couldn’t sue the woman.

    “Georgia is a one consent state when it comes to recording and documentation.”

    “Basically, I have no legal recourse, at least not state. I don’t know about federal,” Mitchell expressed, asking “anyone who is knowledgeable in law and pro bono” to message him with advice.

    One-party consent states are states that have adopted one-party consent laws, where only one person involved in a conversation needs to give consent for the recording to be legal. 

    People voiced their opinions regarding the incident in the comments, writing, “I’m sorry you’re going through this. People are constantly recording EVERYTHING to have something to put online. It’s way out of control.”

    “That is such a violation. I’m sorry that happened to you, and I hope you’re able to get justice,” somebody else said,

    “I am so sorry this happened to you, Mitchell. I hope you sue her. You didn’t deserve this at all. She really should be ashamed of herself,” a third TikTok user agreed.

    “SUUEEEE her please start a go fund me if you need money to do it,” a separate user suggested.

    Another individual commented, “I’m just so confused as to how the person who literally posted a stranger without permission in her OF is getting upset. Like????”

    “Get a lawyer and sue,” someone advised Mitchell

    He 1000% can sue her in court for personal defamation of character. Who gives a s**t whether she had consent to video him or not, that means nothing. She posted it online saying he sexually harassed her, people noticed him from the video in public causing further harm to him. Charge HER for harassment to make her take the video down and SUE THE C**P OUT OF THIS PIECE OF S**T PERSON!!

    Sadly, going to court costs money, and this pathetic influencer likely isn’t worth a dime - he’ll go through an awful lot of stress, hassle and expense with no tangible reward. Nonetheless, it should be noted that the influencer comes out of this looking like a liar, a fantasist, and someone who is fundamentally without worth; if she ever is *actually* the victim of harassment or sexual assault that would be very sad but people would be extremely wary of trusting what she says - and that is 100% her own fault.

    Georgia may be one party consent, but onlyfans isn't. She should get banned.

    Can Target do anything to help Mitchell, since it happened while he was working? Can they force the customer to permanently delete the video and issue an apology?

    Target and OnlyFans should both do something if it’s possible! Not sure if it is, I don’t know the laws :(
