I don't expect to have this problem, but I did I would spend every nickle I have to defend myself against a false accusation.

Why didn’t we prosecute? The execs wanted to avoid litigation. A scandal would be distracting, win or lose. The lawyers would be expensive. The sexual harassment law in those days was draconian– making it very hard to win even when all the evidence is on your side. And what do we get if we do win?

These lawsuits would cease to exist if we went to a "loser pays" structure.
