Yesterday, the 27-year-old pop star Taylor Swift ended on a positive note. The press learned that the actress won a lawsuit against 55-year-old ex-DJ David Muller, whom she accused of sexual harassment after one of her concerts.
Taylor won 1 dollar in court
An unpleasant incident of a sexual nature between Swift and Muller occurred in 2013. After the concert, the celebrity had a photo session, but it was not completely finished. According to Taylor, her local DJ DJ David Mueller, who during the shooting process unexpectedly popped his hand under the Swift skirt unexpectedly and pinched it by the bare part of the buttocks, tore it off. In turn, David explained to the press that this story was completely invented and he did nothing of the kind.
After the decision to sexual harassment of the DJ to the star was taken, Taylor and her lawyer decided to say a few words to the journalists. Here is what Swift said about the matter:
"I am very glad that the legal proceedings on this issue, which is of a sexual nature, are closed. For me, it was very important that Mueller be punished, because he was to blame. I did not want to ruin him, because then I would not have put the amount of moral damage in 1 dollar, I just wanted the perpetrators of sexual harassment to know that they will not get away with anything. This process has shown that with such cases it is necessary and possible to fight. I want to donate a lot of money to various organizations that work to protect the rights of victims of sexual violence. I really want their tragedies also to be examined in court, and their rights were protected. "
- Taylor Swift for the first time in two years was published
- The artist draws famous characters with cartoons, and you will not tear off their eyes!
- 15 celebrities, who would ideally fit the role of Princess Disney!
The conflict between Mueller and Swift lasted more than 3 years
About the fact that David behaved inappropriately towards the singer, it became known not only thanks to the statement of Swift, but also to numerous witnesses who, at the time of sexual harassment were on the set. Then Taylor still did not think to sue Mueller in court, but only turned to the management of the radio station, where he worked as a DJ, with the request to fire a strange employee. The request was executed instantly, only Muller did not like this move.
In 2015, it became known that David had prepared a lawsuit against Taylor, in which he accused the celebrity of libel, and, as a consequence, in his dismissal. However, the artist did not lose her head and filed a counterclaim against the ex-DJ, in which she accused the man of indecent behavior. As a result, the lawsuit in the Müller case was closed, but Taylor's application was interested in the court executors. As a result, Swift's lawsuit was satisfied, and the story of the sexual harassment of the DJ became public.
