    Allegations against Howard Rubin first surfaced in 2017

    Howard Rubin faced a lawsuit in 2017 from three models, two of whom were Playboy models, who claimed that the financier beat, r*ped and abused them, as per CNBC.

    In 2018, a woman brought a $7 million lawsuit against Rubin, alleging that he assaulted her in a s*x dungeon at his penthouse in 2015. The lawsuit was ultimately settled between the accuser and Rubin, according to The New York Post.

    Amid the flurry of allegations against Rubin, which consisted of the fund manager being accused of assaulting and r*ping women in his penthouse equipped with toys, electrocution devices and ropes, Mary Henry filed for divorce. As per another report by The New York Post, Henry filed for divorce from Rubin in 2021 at the Manhattan Supreme Court.

     

    In September 2025, Rubin and his assistant Jennifer Powers were indicted on federal charges in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. As per the indictment, the two are accused of enlisting multiple women to travel to New York City to engage in BDSM s*xual activities with Rubin in exchange for payment.

    FBI Assistant Director in Charge Christopher G. Raia recounted the charges and said,

    “For many years, Howard Rubin and Jennifer Powers allegedly spent at least one million dollars to finance the commercial sexual torture of multiple women via a national trafficking network.  The defendants allegedly exploited Rubin’s status to ensnare their prospective victims and forced them to endure unthinkable physical trauma before silencing any outcries with threats of legal recourse.”

    The women were allegedly taken to the s*x dungeon in Rubin’s penthouse, which had been painted red and was equipped with BDSM devices, as per the indictment.

    Both Powers and Rubin have pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against them.
