Hustler Casino Live co-owner Nick Vertucci has been accused of sexual harassment after Julia McBride came out with controversial screenshots of the conversation with Nick. “Time to break the silence over (Vertucci) using his control over (HCL) to harass women and keep witnesses from speaking up,” Julia wrote.
Julia McBride is an HCL regular, and she started the whole wave of accusations against Nick by posting their conversation where Nick was sexually harassing her. Julia was surprised she was the only woman who went public with the harassment texts and hoped to encourage others to speak out.
It all started when Nick asked her to go out with him after her first appearance on HCL, and after she rejected him, she kept playing on a stream until she found out one day she was banned.
“I can’t think of any reason other than Nick being angry at me, and I can’t think of any reason he’d be angry at me other than the sexual advances that I declined,” said McBride. “But I don’t know … nobody’s told me why.”
However, Julia was not the only HCL player complaining about Nick’s inappropriate behavior. Kitty Kuo also posted on her X account about a negative experience she had with Nick.
There is also a clip where Sashimi complained about Nick touching her inappropriately, and Nick responded with disbelief and arrogance.
HCL co-founder Ryan Feldman announced that Nick Vertucci is no longer part of HCL, and the decision is effective immediately.
