We talk about misconduct so you can avoid it!

Today on the #9to5Nightmares HR podcast, hosts Amy Warren and Micole Garatti cover two breaking misconduct stories involving a former Alaska judge and the former CEO of Abercrombie and Fitch. And, we provide an update on a past story involving MrBeast.

Here’s what you need to know:

• A Judge in Alaska resign earlier this year after news broke of his hostile work environment and sexual misconduct. Months later, conflicts of interest have come to light. Now, 44 of his cases are being reviewed, and prosectors and defense lawyers are requesting convictions be overturned, vacated, and more. (Reuters)
• The former CEO of Abercrombie Mike Jeffries, his romantic partner, and a recruiter at the company have been arrested on sex trafficking and international prostitution chargers charges for recruiting, drugging, and sexually assaulting male models at “Sex Events” from 2008 to 2015. The company promised young men modeling and career opportunities and allegedly threatened to destroy the ment’s careers if they did not participate. (The Justice Department)
• In a previous episode, we talked about the sexual misconduct allegations around MrBeast’s longtime friend and employee, Ava Tyson. At the time, MrBeast denied sexual misconduct and grooming within the MrBeast organization. Since then, an independent law firm has completed an investigation and found no evidence of sexual misconduct and grooming. Despite that, the investigation did uncover several other instances of workplace harassment and misconduct. As a result, MrBeast says he has fired several employees. (The New York Times and AP)
