What happened here, and it's to her advantage, is that she complained and they did an investigation and then they fired her. Even if she loses the harassment claim, juries tend to be very sympathetic about retaliation.
"Leon Friedman" was a Democratic Party (United States)/Democrat who served from 1932 to 1940 as a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives from his native Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana.
Friedman was a member of a prominent landowning Jewish family from Natchez, Louisiana/Natchez in southern Natchitoches Parish. His father, Samuel Friedman (1848-1888), died when Leon was barely a year old. This left his mother, Caroline S. Friedman (1847-1906), as head of the household. A brother, Harry, died in 1895 at the age of fourteen. An older brother, J. Isaac Friedman, served in the state House from 1908 to 1916 and in the Louisiana State Senate for an abbreviated term from 1922 to 1924, following the resignation of Charles Milton Cunningham, the editor and publisher of The Natchitoches Times. The Friedmans are interred at the Jewish Cemetery in Natchitoches, Louisiana/Natchitoches.
Leon and J. Isaac Friedman were not the first Jewish representatives from Natchitoches Parish. Earlier, Leopold Caspari, who in 1884 pushed successfully for the creation of Northwestern State University, also served in both houses of the legislature, nonconsecutively between 1884 and his death in 1915.
More Leon Friedman on Wikipedia.They did it with Robert Bork, because his paper record was so horrible. Bork didn't believe the First Amendment applied to anything except political speech. He didn't believe there was a right to privacy in the Constitution. His writings, his law review articles, were so out of the mainstream in any real sense that he was an easy target.
