NYPD cop says female boss proposed to her in sex toy: suit

An NYPD cop says her lesbian boss repeatedly sexually harassed her, including once luring her into the chief’s office with a strap on a dildo and asking her to use it on her, new court documents allege.

Yvonne Llewellyn Campbell, 53, a traffic agent, claims her boss, Marian Manik, “often” made inappropriate advances, saying she was “attracted to [Campbell] since they worked together years ago,” the Brooklyn Supreme Court lawsuit filed last month says.

Manik, 49, also said “she was attracted to Jamaican women” like Campbell, the statement said.

“She’s terrible, disrespectful and intimidating,” Campbell, a mother and grandmother, told The Post.

According to court documents, Campbell told Manick that she was “not a lesbian and happily married” and “politely refused her boss’s sexual advances.”

But that didn’t stop Manik from allegedly asking Campbell if she’d go for a drink after work, or “regularly” telling Campbell that “she’d like to have sex with her.”

Campbell “had never been harassed so aggressively in her life, let alone by a superior,” the lawsuit says.

A 14-year traffic veteran, he works for the Brooklyn branch of South Crossroads Management, where Manik is an executive director.

Rumors spread throughout the unit that other agents filed complaints against Manik for sexual harassment, and that she wore “dildos and other sex toys under her uniform while she was at work” and “you could see the bulge in her pants,” the suit claims.

On one occasion, Manik called Campbell into her office, and when the agent “opened the door and walked in, she saw defendant Manik with a strap on a dildo,” the documents state.

“Manik has indicated that she wants to have sex with [Campbell] using a dildo,” and she asked her to stay up late to do so, court documents allege.

Campbell turned down Manick, saying she was “not into that sort of thing,” the suit says, and that she was “shocked and embarrassed that my manager would do something like that” at work.

After that, Manik allegedly began to take revenge by giving Campbell unwanted, stressful assignments that the traffic agents “deemed as punishment posts,” the lawsuit says.

Manik also allegedly forbade Campbell from sitting in the agency’s cars to keep warm or cool on hot or very cold days, the lawsuit says.

“I was very upset about this,” Campbell told The Post. “I started crying. That’s what I have to do to get extra hours, and if I don’t, I’ll be treated badly.”

“It’s a quid pro quo,” Campbell said. – If I sleep with you. you will get whatever you want.”

“That’s not what the NYPD was made for,” she said.

Campbell, who suffers from anxiety and depression, claims she was given housing from 2014 to 2020, which gave her extra time for toilet breaks and to keep her from being under elevated trains.

But she said the annual placement request unfairly declared her unfit for work on Feb. 21, 2020, “without taking a single test” — and despite her own doctor saying she was fit for work, court documents say.

As a result, she was forced to work internally and was unable to earn any more over time, costing her roughly $20,000 in additional earnings per year, the lawsuit says.

Campbell sues for unspecified damages.

“The NYPD has repeatedly failed to take remedial action to stop sexual harassment in the workplace,” Campbell’s lawyer John Scola told The Post.

“As a result of these failures, hard-working employees like my client are forced to go to work for fear of retaliation and fear that if they object to such behavior, they will be punished.”

An NYPD spokesman said the department “will decline to comment on the upcoming trial.”

Manik could not be contacted for comment.
