Daniel Snyder, the former owner of the Washington Commanders, was found to have sexually harassed a woman who was both a former cheerleader and marketing employee for the team, according to the second N.F.L. investigation into his scandal-plagued tenure leading the franchise.
Mary Jo White, a former federal prosecutor and chairwoman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, spent 17 months looking into allegations of widespread sexual harassment against executives at the team, including Snyder, as well as claims of financial improprieties. Those allegations were made as part of a congressional inquiry prompted by the league’s refusal to release the details of its first investigation into workplace harassment claims at the team in 2021.
