Linda McMahon faces allegations of enabling sexual abuse during WWE tenure

Linda McMahon, nominated by Donald Trump for Secretary of Education, faces serious allegations in a lawsuit. Five former WWE ring boys accuse her and her husband of enabling sexual abuse by a ringside announcer during the 1980s. The lawsuit claims that Melvin Phillips Jr. groomed and abused young boys, with the McMahons accused of negligence for allowing him to remain in his position. The plaintiffs were reportedly between 13 and 15 years old at the time of the alleged abuse. McMahon's attorney has denied the allegations, calling them false and exaggerated. The WWE has a history of similar accusations, raising concerns about McMahon's ability to ensure student safety and education standards.
