I agree. And by their own disregard for safety, they lost a multi-million (if not, a billion) dollar contract.

(like how my doctor’s appointment to look at the 20wk ultrasound was conveniently after the termination deadline despite the actual ultrasound being before.)

Well, if you’re pregnant in Texas, I would imagine they would do anything for your child. Until it is born.

Also, one of the companies that Blue Bell used to have a contract with did their own investigation and found that Blue Bell’s own health and safety standards were waaaaaaaaaaay below what they should be.

I’m convinced that like 90% of the “rules” for pregnant women are just bollocks made up by people who like to scare pregnant women.

Apparently there were a few employees who sounded the alarm well before anything was done. They said that management told them all was fine, just keep working. If so, they deserve to be prosecuted.

“Probing Blue Bell” has got to have an Urban Dictionary definition, right?

And this is why I side-eye the people that tell me pregnant ladies can’t have sandwiches because of listeria. O.o

Yeah, she got kicked out of the military shortly after. He remained but I never talked to him again. By that time, I had been transferred to a different squadron.

From the bits and pieces we already know of the women’s testimony, she’s not only complicit in a “Look the other way” sense, but materially complicit: she was there when some of these alleged incidents began - creating a sense of safety that would inevitably make someone lower their natural guard - and then left once…

I don’t think she’ll jump ship now. She’s been there too long. I agree with you that she knew and probably actively worked to make it all go away, and she deserves to be held accountable for that. That being said, I’ve met women like her, and IME at least, they will deny anything and everything to preserve their and…

I was sexually assaulted by a former supervisor. He claimed I had been hitting on him all night so he just thought it would be ok to have sex with my unconscious body. His girlfriend found out and decided she would email me while cc’ing all of our coworkers about how I was some kind of whore for sleeping with her man.

Good.

She’s silent because she likes the money and power. I hope she chokes to death on her smugness.

I think that’s only in criminal cases, but I’m not sure (not a lawyer). At any rate, I think it’s something that differs from one jurisdiction to another and is more limited than people generally believe.

There’s no way she was unaware that this has been going on for decades. She has stood by him the entire time. Either she has absolutely no problem with his raping women or he has some serious dirt on her to keep her mouth shut.

I think there's something that changes because she is his business manager.

and that the court should protect her from “unnecessary harassment” by limiting the scope of the subpoena.
