Betsy highlights a problem, a very huge problem, in regards to Mark Wells, the GOP Campbell County treasurer and school board member.
The treasurer of the Campbell County GOP is Mark Wells. He’s also on the Campbell County Board of Education, where, in his spare time, he spends years harassing a teacher and trying to get her fired because she didn’t want to date him.
And this guy is still the treasurer of the Campbell County GOP why?
Who would let their daughters volunteer there, knowing the lengths he’d go to if she rejected his advances? What woman would want to work there? And what message is the Campbell County Republican Party trying to send? That they’ll tolerate having a guy who would do this in their midst?
The EEOC found that he harassed her. Are Republicans just waiting to see how much money she gets out of the school system for looking the other way?
I don’t get it.
I don’t get it either, but I also want to say that the EEOC found that he was at fault. Listen, it’s not just the GOP with the issue of sexual harassment. But any time, regardless of the party, that something like this happens it needs to be completely and undeniably dealt with extreme prejudice by the party and by human beings as a whole.
If you don’t want the lawsuit, then don’t be a douche. When Wells couldn’t get this young woman to bend to his will, he went after her reputation.
Let me repeat, he went after her character because she wouldn’t do what he wanted her to do.
That’s heinous.
