| C.D. v Mostowy
B.C. S.C. October 2021
|
[C.D.] was 44 years of age and was employed by Mr. Mostowy from November 23, 2010 to December 9, 2010. Using sexualized conversations, he used massages to gradually expose and touch her breasts, despite her protestations. Eventually, he exposed his penis and began masturbating in front of her and then placed his penis in her hand. He used her breasts to masturbate himself to ejaculation. This was repeated the following day, with a brief period of fellatio. The victim became emotionally upset by this conduct and suffered stress-induced migraine headaches for which she was prescribed a narcotic. | $284,400 | $540,000 |
