Controversy
In 2009, Melissa’s husband, Miguel, was accused of sexually harassing a female employee named Martha L. Chacón, who worked in their family’s home complex called Vistas del Turabo in Palmas del Mar, Puerto Rico. Along with Miguel, Chacón also sued Miguel’s father, brother, and Melissa. Apparently, Miguel harassed Chacón by making sexual insinuations and undesired and unwelcomed physical actions for months before she gave in fearing that she might lose her only means of income, which sustained her three children. Finally, after engaging in the sexual arrangement for two months, Chacón refused to continue it when she could not cope morally or spiritually with the situation. Following the incident, she was fired by Miguel and Melissa. According to the suit filed by Chacón, in October 2008, while she was working in the home complex, Melissa insulted and violently threatened Chacón after which Miguel fired her. While insulting Chacón, Melissa called her “Puta,” which means whore. [1]ESPN
