'The basic problem with [Cynthia] Donald's claim is that virtually all the evidence of her conduct suggests that she welcomed and was an active participant in her relationship with Johnson,' Judge Elaine Bucklo wrote.
CHICAGO -- A judge has dismissed a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by a former Chicago police officer against former Superintendent Eddie Johnson.Johnson was fired as superintendent in 2019 after Mayor Lori Lightfoot accused him of lying to her and the public about what happened the night he was found asleep at the wheel of his vehicle in October 2019, following a night of drinking with a member of his security detail.That officer, Cynthia Donald, sued Johnson in 2020.
'The unfortunate reality is that relationships between supervisors and subordinates can be fraught,' Bucklo wrote. 'It may well be that Donald in fact did not want or enjoy her relationship with Johnson. The problem is one of proof: she has not come forward with evidence from which a reasonable jury could find in her favor.' Donald's attorney, Robert McLaughlin, issued a statement saying 'we are disappointed' with the ruling, and that they planned to appeal.
