Wynn stepped down as CEO in 2018, after an investigation done by The Wall Street Journal reported multiple sexual misconduct accusations against him, cited by several different sources. He has since denied all allegations against him. The Massachusetts Gaming Commission charged Wynn Resorts with a $35 million fine for the violations, as well as Wynn’s current CEO, Matthew Maddox, with a $500,000 personal fine for neglecting to require an investigation into a complaint presented by one of his employees. In addition to the fine, Maddox will undergo mandatory training by an executive coach, who will be hired by Wynn’s board of directors. This will consist of training in sexual assault, sexual misconduct, human trafficking and more. During an open meeting on Wednesday, Massachusetts Gaming Commissioner Gayle Cameron explained how the commission went about this process. “We got to this decision, that in our opinion, the evidence and the statute that we have to go by demanded it,” she said.
