Fayetteville Schools Superintendent Fired

Pissed someone off or did something stupid.

wonder if he denied a man-pretending-to-be-a-woman admittance into a little girl's bathroom?

or failing on some other SWJ level

Who did he harass? Knowing Fayetteville, it was probably another dude.

Ah, goodbye career. Nothing quite like watching someone flush their entire life's work down the drain.

She said he tried to get her to meet him at a hotel, but she told him that she couldn't do that. She said he persuaded her to meet him in the parking lot of JC Penney so they could talk. She said he drove the two of them to Lake Fayetteville, where they became physical, but she would not have sex with him and told him she had to go home.

She said Wendt insisted they meet at a hotel because he was going to have a surgery and would not be in the office to talk. The woman said she met Wendt in a Springdale hotel and that he brought a bottle of vodka. She said she had a couple of drinks of vodka as he ate dinner and that they then had sex.

"I didn't feel like I could tell him no and it was the biggest mistake I've ever made," she said in the statement.

Ok

"He would wear me out until I agreed to meet and then he would pressure me for sex," she said. "He would always bring alcohol because I couldn't be with him without it."

Sounds like bad sex to me. Where is the harassment when she keeps going to meet him?

Spoken like someone whose never been in a position of superiority in the workplace over someone else, hopefully.

Relations with subordinates ALWAYS leave the door open to sexual harassment and abuse of power allegations, espcecially if you’re getting paid on the public’s dime. Whether the relationship was consensual at one time or not, Wendt was an idiot for sleeping with an employee.

Farm animals don’t count as “subordinates” nor does “moo” indicate enjoyment.

Former superintendent Matthew Wendt has sued the woman who accused him of sexual harassment, saying she's responsible for the School Board firing him.

Wendt filed the lawsuit Tuesday against Shae Lynn Newman in Washington County Circuit Court.

Wendt contends he can no longer get a job as a school administrator. Wendt said he has had more than 65 employment rejections since he was fired, including one for a car salesman.

---

An investigation by school officials completed in March found there was no basis for a sexual harassment claim and no action should be taken against Wendt, according to the lawsuit.

Is the last part true...that an investigation found there was no basis for her claims?
