Description
Former County Supervisor and Metropolitan Transit System Board Chair Nathan Fletcher had no involvement in the firing of a woman accusing him of sexual harassment and assault, according to an independent investigation released Thursday by MTS.
The investigation also found that prior to the woman's termination, MTS officials had no knowledge of any kind of relationship between Fletcher and Grecia Figueroa, who sued Fletcher and MTS last year, claiming the ex-MTS chair groped her and sexually harassed her by pursuing a sexual relationship with her for months.
Her lawsuit also alleges MTS fired her at Fletcher's direction. Figueroa was terminated from her media relations position last February, on the day Fletcher announced his state Senate candidacy.
MTS officials alleged Figueroa's termination was performance-related and denied any connection between the firing and the allegations against Fletcher.
