One thought on “Renowned scientist David Sabatini wins seven-figure payout after jury rules his 20 years younger colleague Kristin Knouse lied about him being a sex pest.”

1. I suspect the jury saw an old story… younger woman, “pretty power”, access to opportunities. Older man flattered by attention, feeling youthful, a mentor. Followed by “a woman scorned……” An old and familiar scenario. The new bit is the narrative of “power” and patriarchy that taps into notions of chivalry and gentlemanly behaviour and female innocence and fragility. But pretends to be analysis and social science. Clearly the jury needed training and education by “experts”. All credit to Sabatini, after all fighting an attractive younger woman almost guarantees being cast as the baddie.
