I haven’t been following this... what did this guy do?
From the story.
“Dann admitted an extramarital affair with an employee that he said contributed to an atmosphere leading to the sexual harassment claims.”
Here's some, but certainly not all, of it:
Dann hired a friend/idiot in the Attorney General's office who was totally unqualified to work there. The guy owed a bunch of taxes, including to Ohio, for his failing business. A private business he apparently ran while also working at the AG's office. Plus he smashed up at least two state cars & didn't report the damage. Everyone suspects he was drunk both times. The AG, in fact, picked him up from the police station after a past DUI.
More "scandalously", he hired unqualified women because of their looks then proceeded to sexually harrass them. Often.
This culiminated in him pressuring one of the employees to come to his condo outside of Columbus, while both were drunk. A condo he shared with the AG & another AG crony.
The young woman passed out only to wake up & find her pants buttons undone & Gutierrez (crony #1) next to her, asleep, with his pants off. The AG was at the condo that night, with his own young staffer (more on that).
She reported the sexual harrasment to the AG's HR Dept. So did another woman, who had similar stories to share. The AG's office tried to sweep it all under the rug, before anyone found out.
All the while, questions were being raised as to why the AG's own young staffer was at the condo that night in either pajamas or sweats at 10pm. This eventually lead to the AG admitting one of the worst-kept secrets - he was having an affair with her.
Dan fired some of his cronies. Others resigned. Every day a new layer of scandal on this guy is revealed.
The Dems want to lose him FAST. The Repubs want to keep him around, for obvious reasons.
All of it is very entertaining/sad.
