In an exclusive report from the Washington Post, 15 women, all of whom were former employees of the Washington NFL team, have accused current and former team members of sexual harassment. Only one of the 15, Emily Applegate, chose to reveal her identity.
Applegate and the others revealed to the Post clear violations of workplace conduct, including degrading remarks about appearance, clothing, verbal abuse, and unwanted physical contact.
A week before the report was published, Alex Santos and Richard Mann II were both fired. Santos was the team’s director of pro personnel, and Mann was the team’s assistant director of pro personnel.
