St. Paul, Minnesota, officials reportedly investigate allegations of sexual harassment involving Kaohly Her, the city’s first female mayor. According to reports citing a complaint submitted by the city’s police chief, the police chief alleges that Her behaved inappropriately toward him and other members of his department. The New York Times and NBC News report that the allegations are based on claims that Her sent inappropriate messages to employees, including members of the police department. City leaders say they have hired an outside law firm to conduct an independent inquiry into the matter. Her was elected in November and is a Democrat. The reports describe the process as an investigation into the allegations; they do not indicate any findings or outcomes at this time. The city’s contracting of an external legal firm suggests the inquiry is intended to be separate from internal city handling of the complaint.
