Anucha Browne Sanders, a 44-year-old former Northwestern University basketball star, says she was dismissed in 2005 because she dared to accuse head coach of the NY Knicks, Isiah Thomas of routinely using vulgar language in his first year and of later making unwanted sexual advances toward her. She sought reinstatement to a job as vice president of marketing, which paid as much as $260,000 annually.
In the end, the sexual harrassment lawsuit setted for $11.6 million.
Is this fair a fair settlement? Or overdone? Would you allow someone to harrass you for $11.6 million??
