Summary

A fashion salon owner in NYC’s Garment District is facing serious charges after allegedly stealing $54K in unpaid wages from her seamstresses, forcing them to work 12-17 hour days and even overnight shifts—sometimes over 100 hours a week. Workers say she offered clothes instead of cash, ignored small claims judgments, and preyed on vulnerable employees too afraid to speak up. Texts reveal desperate pleas to send money home for sick children. Authorities are urging victims to come forward, regardless of immigration status, as Marshall faces grand larceny, fraud, and wage theft charges. This case underscores that behind every luxury garment is a human story—and wage theft won’t be tolerated. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
