If there was nothing there, why would you pay someone off?
Shit, tell them to go pound sand all day instead. If you are innocent you wouldn't need to buy their silence.
Very simple - litigation costs and maybe not having insurance coverage for claims of this nature.
Back then, many carriers did not cover these types of suits and didnt even offer riders to the Gen umbrealla policies to cover employment claims of this nature.
Give the fact that litigation takes forever and costs a shit load of money, maybe both parties decided it was in their best interests to resolve this on the cheap early on.
if it were as egregious as blacken wants to claim, why settle before even a suit is filed?
He probably said some juvenile bs that these women took too seriously and cry babied to anyone who would listen.
