Herman Cain’s Assistant Battles His Widow, Claiming “He Promised Me Gold Bars”

Herman Cain’s Widow is now locked in a legal fight with his assistant after the assistant claimed Herman promised her a valuable severance package that included lots of cash and gold bars.

According to TMZ, Cain’s assistant Lisa Reichert, who worked for him as his executive assistant for 9 years until his death, filed docs in Henry County, Georgia. The woman is opposing Cain’s widow, Gloria, and her attempt to serve as administrator to her late husband’s estate.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Lisa claims Gloria grossly understated Herman’s assets and failed to list gold coins and bars she claims were stored in Herman’s safe deposit box, along with other cash, that he set aside to give to her.

Lisa is upset because if the estate fails to acknowledge her severance claim, which she says Herman repeatedly promised to pay her when he was alive, she won’t receive the monies promised to her. She fears if Gloria is appointed administrator of the estate, she’ll distribute the $482k in assets she listed without setting aside enough to cover her claim against the estate.

Reichert wants a court-appointed neutral administrator instead of Gloria to handle the estate.
