Law student claims Charles Waterstreet made her watch porn

A young law student has claimed barrister Charles Waterstreet forced her to watch a pornographic video during a job interview – but he has hit back through his legal representatives, denying the allegations.

Tina Huang, 21, said she quit working for the prominent criminal barrister just three hours into her first day as a junior paralegal.

Ms Huang, who also is also a gender studies student, said she decided not to continue with the job because of the uncomfortable situation Mr Waterstreet allegedly put her in, according to the New Matilda.

The 66-year-old, who was the inspiration for the ABC drama series Rake, allegedly showed her a video of a sex act being performed on a man during an interview held at his office in Sydney.

During the course of the one-hour interview, Ms Huang claims he also showed her pictures of naked women, told her he enjoyed sex parties and women snorting cocaine off his body.

‘He talked about attending sex parties, having many girlfriends and enjoying threesomes,’ Ms Huang wrote in an article for New Matilda.

The third-year law student at University of Sydney also claims Mr Waterstreet told her he would rather hire ‘pretty young things’ to work with him.

She had applied for the job via her university’s careers hub website in writing and had received a reply from him the next day.

In the email, he reportedly told her that her CV read ‘like a mirror of my own.’

‘I have written about [a number of women] and am fuelled by the emerging knowledge that women are stronger, volcanic, powerful and repressed for 5000 years because men feared women’s sexuality and other things,’ he wrote.

‘Of, my law is my life blood, murder, drugs, and money, sex slaves, the axe women of 7/11 etc.’

He ended the message by saying he would like to meet her as soon as possible to discuss availability.

Ms Huang said that although the interview had left her ‘confused’ she took the job and began it several days later.

On her first day, she claimed Mr Waterstreet had told her he was upset because he had not been invited to a recent sex party, had her reply to personal emails regarding dates and late payment for sex toys.

The next day, she told him she could no longer work for him and he reportedly replied with an apology for ‘acting like a dork’ and said he had been excited to work on things that were ‘outside the box.’

In her article, Ms Huang said she had been motivated to speak out after seeing news articles about the allegations against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

She said she hoped sharing her story would encourage other women to tell theirs.

Ms Huang described how she had been blinded by the first warning signs because she believed Mr Waterstreet was ‘famous and powerful and a cheeky, but genius man.’

Mr Waterstreet told The Daily Telegraph he had shown Ms Huang the material he claims was evidence in court cases he was working on.

He told the publication he had been ‘victimised’ by the young woman and that Ms Huang’s claims were ‘either false or taken out of context’.

Mr Waterstreet also denied Ms Huang’s allegations in a phone call with the New Matilda.

A letter from his legal representatives stated: ‘We are instructed that the allegations made by Ms Huang are either false factually; false and baseless as to the effect of the conduct being claimed; or out of context considering the circumstances and the involvement of Ms Huang.

‘Our client also instructs us that in respect of the interview conducted with Ms Huang, witnesses will corroborate his version of events and the allegations raised in your email of 20 October 2017 will be refuted and clarified and out client’s conduct justified.’

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Mr Waterstreet for further comment.

No stranger to controversy, Mr Waterstreet reportedly told the Sunday Telegraph he enjoyed hiring attractive young women where ‘many barristers insist on a CV. I just insist on photos.’

The barrister, whose clients include the mother-in-law of Islamic State jihadist Khaled Sharrouf and Skaf gang rapist Mohamed Sanoussi, regularly posts photos of women and sexual artwork to his Instagram account.

In one photo of red lace lingerie posted in April, Mr Waterstreet wrote: ‘Happy Good Friday to all the women I ever kissed’.

The 66-year-old has written many columns for Fairfax Media, pieces for Penthouse and has an autobiography called ‘Precious Bodily Fluids: A Larrikin’s Memoir’.

The NSW Bar Association told News Corp they had a strong policy against sexual harassment and investigate any complaints made.
