The Washington Post obtained and published legal documents Tuesday that detailed how a woman employee accused Commanders team owner Dan Snyder of sexual harassment and assault in 2009.
According to the documents, the allegations include the team owner “asking her for sex, groping her and attempting to remove her clothes.” The alleged incident reportedly occurred in a private portion of one of the team’s private planes. Three months later, the Commanders reached a $1.6 million settlement, which the Post reported two years ago.
