. He was assigned to work with a group that called itself "Team 007" and was led by wealth advisor Julius Erukhimov. Blumenthal began the internship while a student at Drexel University, and turned 21 years old during it.
When Blumenthal declined, Erukhimov allegedly wrestled with the smaller intern and pushed him from the bar to the outdoor patio. There the advisor choked Blumenthal for so long he passed out, urinated on himself, and smashed his head after Erukhimov threw him to the ground, the filing stated. The plaintiff's lawyers allege numerous Goldman employees witnessed the altercation, including senior managers and managing agents. The bank's statement said Goldman quickly looked into the incident, and that the witnesses didn't see the event as an intentional act.
Erukhimov had also allegedly told Blumenthal stories of his relatives harming others, including an anecdote where his cousin put a nightclub bouncer "in a vegetative state" after he asked the cousin to not stand on a table. Blumenthal's advisor allegedly ended the long conversation by saying his cousin was visiting San Francisco in a few weeks.
