George Bardwil leaves court after an appearance. He is do back in court on December 1. When he left court he stopped for a hotdog and asked his lawyer Jeremy Saland for money to pay for it. The CEO of the nation’s largest linen company went berserk and brutally beat his housemaid in his posh Upper East Side apartment — leaving her with swelling on the brain, officials said. George Bardwil, 57, who runs Bardwil Home, was charged with second degree assault in Sunday’s savage attack that left the maid unconscious in a pool of blood. The maid — who was only on her second day on the job — told police that when she arrived for work that afternoon, Bardwil opened the door and began pummeling her. After repeatedly striking her on the head and face, Bardwil then dragged her across the floor to the living room where she blacked out. When she came to paramedics were working on her and she was taken to New York-Presbyterian Hospital where she remains in stable condition. Bardwil initially told police he found the maid lying on the floor when he came out of the shower and called for help. «She was like that when I got out of the shower. I called the doorman instead of 911,» he said, according to the criminal complaint. But he later admitted that he struck the woman because she had stolen money from him. «She saw where I kept an envelope with $5,500 in it. I know she took it. When she wouldn’t admit it, I hit her three times in the head with my closed fist,» he said. Bardwil Home makes table and bath linens under the Lenox and Bardwil brands and was started nearly a century ago by Bardwil’s grandfather. Bardwil inherited the company in 2000 when his father, Elias died. Sources said Bardwil is on anti-depressant medication and is estranged from his first wife and three children. He recently got remarried to a woman 21 years his junior, but she left him about two weeks ago and returned to her family in Canada, the sources said. Bardwil’s younger brother, Charles, died
