Settlement Reached In "Sex For Repairs" Lawsuit

The details are not known, but WBAL NewsRadio 1090 confirms a settlement has been reached in the "sex for repairs" lawsuit filed against the Baltimore City Housing Authority by 19 women who lived in public housing.

The federal class action lawsuit alleged that maintenance staff of the housing authority demanded sex from the women who were seeking repair work on their apartments.

Each plaintiff has been seeking $10-million.

"The parties have reached a settlement subject to approval by HUD and the Court," plaintiffs attorney Cary Hansel and the Housing Authority said in a joint statement issued Monday night.

  1. Yes, giving large sums of money to people with nothing always turns out well. People dont need money they need safety. If the courts did their jobs they would throw the guilty party in jail for a long time.

  2. It'll be interesting to see if the maintenance guy(s) get fired or just moved to some other government job.
