Dough-
I hope you had a good weekend.

Jones was not an employee of the Governor. She was a volunteer greeter at a meeting so she was not even in the "workplace." Taking her facts as true, he came onto her in his hotel room in a very
crude manner, and she rebuffed him.


She was in fact an employee. She worked in some kind of economic development department. Further, she went into HIS room (alledgedly), escorted by Trooper Danny Ferguson (the other defendant in the case) where he had his pants around his ankles (alledgedly).

This case was never a "sexual harassment" case. It was a violation of Paula Jones' civil rights. The entire case was thrown out because Judge Wright determined that a governor with his pants around his ankles asking an employee the "kiss it" was not egregious behavior. I happen to disagree and think a jury of her peers should make this determination.
