Suit: Versace used secret 'code' for black customers

Story highlights

(CNN)A former Versace employee is suing the company for unfair business practices, and one of the allegations in his lawsuit is that the luxury fashion label uses a secret "code" to alert employees when a black customer enters the store.

Christopher Sampiro, 23, says he was fired for being of mixed race, after working two weeks at the Versace outlet store in Pleasanton, California.

Sampiro alleges that during the new-employee training, a manager asked him if he knew about the "D410 Code" -- the same code used for black clothing. The manager's name is not mentioned in the lawsuit, which was filed in November, six weeks after the alleged exchange.

The manager instructed Sampiro "to say 'D410' in a casual manner when a black person entered the store," according to the lawsuit. The manager explained the "code is used to alert co-workers that 'a black person is in the store,'" the lawsuit said.

Sampiro responded by asking the manager, "You know that I'm African American?" In the lawsuit, Sampiro self-identifies as one-quarter African American.

After this response, Sampiro claimed the store's management treated him differently and did not give him "legitimate" training.

Sampiro was fired after working two weeks in September because he didn't "understand luxury" and didn't "know the luxury life," according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit also alleges Sampiro was not paid for time worked, did not receive rest periods and was wrongfully terminated.

In court documents filed with Alameda County Superior Court, Versace denied Sampiro's allegations and asked a judge to dismiss the case.

CNN received a statement from the company affirming their commitment to equality.

"Versace believes strongly in equal opportunity, as an employer and a retailer. We do not tolerate discrimination on the basis of race, national origin or any other characteristic protected by our civil rights laws. We have denied the allegations in this suit, and we will not comment further concerning pending litigation," said the statement.

Profiling works. Even if libtards like Decktard hate it when criminals are caught. We aren't all equal. We never were equal. Some races steal more than others.

I wish we could all get along but black community earned its stripes. Just like moslems earned their stripes. The innocent need to go after those causing the problem like Americans[Indians], Asians and Europeans have done. As long as excuses are made certain groups will keep doing what they do which is cause 90% of the problems in the world! Anyone got the body count in Shitcago? Probably not since no one gives a shit about black on black crime! Anyone got the body count in Muddled East? No because people don't care about moslem on moslem crime!

Since the MSM refuses to identify feral youths as black, maybe they can use the code instead.

For example, "A crowd of D410s rioted in the mall yesterday." Or "The elderly white man was a victim of the 'knockout game' by a D410." Or, "The D410 pulled a gun on police and was shot."
