(Elaine Thompson, File/Associated Press)SEATTLE — A lawsuit filed Thursday accuses Seattle Mayor Ed Murray of sexually molesting a teenage high-school dropout in the 1980s, and in interviews with The Seattle Times, two other men claim he abused them. As mayor he pushed to increase the city’s minimum wage to $15 an hour and address the homelessness crisis in Seattle. Murray paid him $10 to $20 for each of at least 50 encounters over the next four to five years, the lawsuit said. “I have been dealing with this for over 30 years,” the man, now sober for a year, told the Times. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and says D.H. has not previously made any financial demands of Murray.
