Ex-employee, Michelle Moor, alleges she was drugged at firm’s party
More crazy news to brighten your day!
Boston.com reports that a former associate at Bingham McCutchen, Michelle Moor, has filed a discrimination complaint against the Boston law firm, claiming it failed to promptly investigate her allegation that she had been drugged at a firm holiday party, and that another female associate had been drugged and raped a year earlier by a Bingham employee.
The complaint, filed yesterday at the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination, also alleges a Bingham employee remarked at a firm dinner that he enjoyed giving women date-rape drugs and having sex with them, and that Bingham failed to adequately investigate those comments.
According to the complaint, Moor, who began working at Bingham in September 2007 after having been a summer associate there while attending Northeastern University School of Law, became dazed and disoriented during the firm’s annual holiday party, held at a North End restaurant. Moor, who recalls having only two glasses of wine, later went to an emergency room, where a blood test revealed she had ingested Tegretol, an antiseizure medication that can cause memory loss when mixed with alcohol, the complaint says.
