flag An 18-year-old woman won $137,000 in damages after suing her employer for sexual assault, but the defendant may be unable to pay.

flag In 2026, 18-year-old Anita sued the owner of a rural bar where she worked after he sexually assaulted her following a late shift, drugging her and attacking her while she slept. flag Video evidence supported her account, and though the owner pleaded guilty in criminal court, he denied liability in civil court, claiming legal coercion—arguments the judge rejected. flag A jury awarded her $137,000 in damages for trauma, therapy, lost tuition, delayed employment, and unpaid wages, with both the bar and owner held jointly liable. flag However, the owner, who represented himself and lacked financial resources, may be unable to pay, leaving the compensation uncollectible.
