Sheriff Accused of Harrassment
February 21 2012
BATH, NY - Last week, Steuben County Sheriff Deputy Jen Reed received a $100,000 settlement against the sheriff’s department for alleged sexual harassment, and today the Evening Tribune has broken a story that Deputy Jen Reed’s attorney says that Sheriff Joel Ordway is accused of making advances towards Deputy Reed at a hotel near Utica in 2010.
In the article, Ray Schlather, the Ithaca-based attorney for Deputy Reed, also alleges that that while Ordway apologized both that night back in 2010, and the next morning as well, that he was allegedly unfair to her in the workplace after that alleged incident.
It was about a month ago that Ordway announced he was not seeking re-election.
Attempts by WLEA/WCKR News to reach the sheriff have not been successful.
