By Louthian Law Firm
A former Police Department communications supervisor from Zachary has been awarded $45,000 from a federal court jury in her sexual harassment lawsuit against the former Assistant Police Chief.
According to her testimony, the assistant chief asked her to have a relationship with him in December 2005 and again in July 2006. After her second refusal, the man began complaining about her job performance even though he recommended her for a permanent position prior to the second incident.
After both the communications supervisor and the assistant police chief were asked to take a polygraph test, termination proceedings were initiated against the assistant chief.
