My brother was accused of sexual harassment. He was called into HR and said that a woman was suing the company he worked at for sexual harassment and he had been named as a harasser. My brother didn't recognize the name. They described her. Still didn't know her. Showed him a picture. Said he might of vaguely remember seeing her but never said anything to her. One day saw her during shift change. Talked to some of his fellow co-workers and they said they had been accused too. A couple of months later this woman is no longer at the company.
About a year later my brother changes companies. Who does he see one day but the same woman working there! My brother theorizes she got paid off with a nondisclosure agreement and was hired with no warning of what she was pulling. Yeah, she was already starting to accuse men of harassing her.
I'm sure we all have similar stories. Having worked with HR, they have to devote too much time and energy to not just providing "equal opportunity" but a "safe workplace." What ends up happening especially at white collar jobs is men having a target on their backs. No wonder they want to offshore jobs.

EVENTUALLY though, she tried pulling it one too many times, on someone who was PREPARED (VIDEO and audio footage of all of their meetings), so when the SARP and JAG officer saw it, they took her behind to courts marshal, and iirc she got a Other than honorable discharge.
Kavanaugh should be able to bring a lawsuit against the Democrats and Ms Dr. Ford for definition of character.
I think she is lying.

What happened to "Innocent until proven guilty?" I'm watching clips from CNN and they are leaving out the word "allegedly" a lot. The networks are phrasing these allegations as if they were known fact.

That woman doesn't view her job as a career or even a paycheck. She views it as a LOTTERY TICKET. All she needs is one lawsuit jackpot payout and she is set up for life and never needs to work again.
I blame the tort lawyers more than I blame her.
