The Associated Press has the latest scoop: A third former employee says that she considered filing a workplace complaint against Herman Cain over what she considered aggressive and unwanted behavior.UPDATE: Ron Paul wonders if another GOP candidate planted this story.
Like the other two women who did file complaints of sexual harassment during the mid-1990s, the third woman also worked for the National Restaurant Association when Cain was its president and CEO, according to the report. She told the AP that Cain’s sexually suggestive actions occurred about the same time that the other two women settled their own complaints against Cain.
From the AP: “The employee described situations in which she said Cain told her he had confided to colleagues how attractive she was and invited her to his corporate apartment outside work. She spoke on condition of anonymity, saying she feared retaliation.”
Another update: This may or may not be the same accuser.
