Scaia is accused of repeatedly harassing a 51-year-old male employee at the Main Street Business Center in East Rockaway and at his home.

According to officials, she exposed her breast and made antisemitic remarks to the man after he told her multiple times to go away.

In the criminal complaint, the man says Scalia "came into the store and began yelling about various things" and "has shown up to my house before and bothered me also."

The worker said he fears he "could lose my job" if she continues to hang around his business.
