Stankoski and Stout said they felt vindicated by the findings and the recommendation that their former supervisor, Anthony Gutierrez, be fired, but didn’t feel the discipline goes far enough.
“I’m relieved,” Stankoski said. “I came here to start a career…I was once proud to say I worked for the attorney general. Now it’s become an embarrassment.”
Stout said she was “somewhat relieved” but didn’t feel the recommended discipline goes far enough. “This involved other people in the office.”
Both women said that Attorney General Marc Dann, a Democrat elected in 2006, contributed to the top-down “hostile work environment” that the report characterized.
“If it’s OK for him to do these things, then it’s OK for everybody else,” Stout said.
Dann’s office today offered to restore Stout to her former position (she had been transferred), and said it would provide counseling for both women.
Hmmm. That last sentence. Those last two words. Not what I was thinking.
