Perkins should also be prosecuted for hiring an illegal worker.

“accused her boss of making sexually suggestive remarks, touching her and showing up unannounced at her house.”

Other than the touching, how is what she is alleging here different than what she perpetrated by being here illegally? If she was so uncomfortable with him showing up at her house uninvited, she should be able to understand how her illegal status makes Americans uncomfortable.

her boss, Mario Centeno, showing up at her home for her child’s baptism.

I can’t imagine how he could “show up” for this anchor-baby occasion without her having told him about it in the first place

Yes, U.S. District Judge John Tunheim is a corrupt Clinton scumbag, appointed in 1995.

Legitimate ruling, IMO, though he should be charged with hiring illegals and she should be deported.

Once he hired her he took on the responsibilities of an employer, and this sounds like something that was considered "sexual harrasment" even before the anti-Thomas lobby twisted the definition around.

Well, if she needed to request the day off, that would be one way he could have found out...

That would be the most just ruling.

Next suit: a bank robber complaining about how he was treated while robbing the bank.

Hmm. Anchor baby baptismal parties. There’s a new niche. Balloons, napkins, tableclothes, with anchors..

I agree with this ruling. This woman may be here illegally, but that doesn’t mean someone perpetrating a crime against her (allegedly sexual harassment) should be able to get away with it. Along with facing sexual harassment charges, her employer should also face charges for hiring undocumented workers.

Perhaps she invited other co-workers, and he heard about it through the grapevine? It's not so hard to imagine . . .

I don’t think she has much credibility. She’s already a lawbreaker. As for a suit, I think it shown be thrown out, along with her.

I doubt her flavor of crime has any bearing at all on this.

Be careful, home invaders might file a suit against you for locking your doors.

I don’t see why it shouldn’t.

“I don’t think she has much credibility.”

Speaking as a woman, when women say they are being sexually harassed, I tend to believe them.

“She’s already a lawbreaker. As for a suit, I think it shown be thrown out, along with her.”

Scenario: Your grandkid is caught by a shopkeeper shoplifting. The shopkeeper takes the opportunity to cop a feel.

Lijah’s Bubbe says: You had it coming.

Thanks, your sense of justice is clearly overdeveloped!

I don’t see why it shouldn’t.

Because the crime of sexual harassment is completely different in nature than, and unrelated to, the crime of being in this country illegally. Would the victim of a murder not be a murder victim if he or she were in the country illegally? Would the victim of a robbery not be a robbery victim if he or she were in the country illegally?

Hemmingway,

Excellent and obvious points.

Interesting that LB doesn’t think the employer’s character is in any way questionable, even though he is undeniably breaking the law as well by employing illegals.

Oh well, smart isn’t everything.

Sorry, doesn’t work, my grandchild is legal.

And you owe me an apology, for lying. You said I said she had it coming. Never said it, never implied it. You should be ashamed.
