Daily Mail: Larry King, The Latest To Be Accused Of Sexual Misconduct

via Page Six:

Larry King will sue “Daily Mail TV” over allegations that he groped a woman, insists his lawyer.

On Monday Terry Richard, the ex-wife of singer Eddie Fisher, told the show that King groped her in 2005, saying that he slipped his hand down the back of her backless dress while they were posing for a picture together and that, on another occasion, groped her butt so forcefully that it left a bruise.

But later King’s lawyer, Hollywood power lawyer Bert Fields told Page Six that King “flatly and unequivocally denies these claims” and that he “intends to file suit and prove that they’re utterly false.”

Sources say that King’s team warned the show last week that he would sue if the story was published.

Richard claimed that King first groped her at a 2005 baseball award ceremony in LA, saying that he slipped his hand down the back of her dress.

“His fingers went into the crack of my ass!” Fisher said. She said that a year later — again when they were taking a picture together — King groped her butt so forcefully that it left a bruise.

Richard said, “Larry King is a groper. He groped me twice. He gets a thrill doing this in front of the camera, knowing I couldn’t do anything.”

King’s lawyer told the show that Richard’s claim is false as. “Mr. King did no such thing then or ever,” said the lawyer.

A “Daily Mail TV” rep did not get back to us.
