EEOC Claim Against St. Louis County
 

The woman who filed a sexual harassment claim against St. Louis County Commissioner Dennis Fink last year, has filed a complaint against the county. Employee Relations Director Martha Watson confirmed the complaint is through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a federal agency. She said that numerous people were named in the complaint, both elected and non-elected. Watson also said the county is doing their own investigation.

This action follows the county's response to the sexual harassment investigation into Fink. As you know, the county hired two outside lawyers to look into the matter. The lawyers found that harassment did occur. The board chose not to censure Fink.
