Sequoia VC Goguen quits over sex abuse lawsuit
Michael Goguen, a Venture Capitalist at Sequoia Capital for about 20 years has quit the firm following a lawsuit for "sexually, physically and emotionally" abusing a woman for over 13 years. Goguen had promised the woman $40 million in settlement, but only paid $10 million. Goguen later said he is being extorted after his relationship with the woman went "sour."
