So she knew him that's why they didn't prosecute. He was a temporary employee during the holidays.
Turned out he had similar allegations from previous employers and her company didn't vet him. To make it more complicated they were armed security guards, the police didn't understand why she didn't use her weapon. She froze and after that incident never returned to work.
