Executive Discovered Sexually Harassing Employees
Deleted electronic messages exculpate female employee
A woman employed by a large defense contractor accused her supervisor
of sexually harassing her. She was fired from her job for ‘poor
performance' and subsequently sued her ex-boss and the former
employer.
NTI was retained by the plaintiff's attorneys to investigate
allegations of the former supervisor's harassing behavior. After making a
mirror image backup of the ex-boss' hard drive, we were able to recover
deleted electronic messages that showed that the ex-boss had a history of
propositioning women under his supervision for ‘special favors'. A
situation that might have been mired in a "he said/she said" continuum was
quickly resolved; the woman got her job back, and the real culprit was
terminated.
