Paula Deen innocent? -- case dismissed, lawsuit dropped
This needs a better cite, but good grief! The accusing lawsuit was dropped in August 2013. How much coverage has that got, compared to the coverage when the accusations were made?
Punishment first, trial afterwards? I'll post later about the meaning of 'lynching'.
Paula Deen Discrimination Lawsuit Dropped
[....]
Lawyers in Savannah, Ga., signed a deal on Friday, Aug. 23, to drop the lawsuit against the disgraced former Food Network chef, 66, who was accused by ex-employee Lisa Jackson last year of racial discrimination.
According to the Associated Press, both parties agreed to drop the case "without any award of costs or fees to any party." No other details were released.

[O]n Monday, Aug. 12, U.S. District Court Judge William T. Moore threw out Jackson's claims that the Southern star and her brother Bubba Hiers had subjected her to racist attitudes during the five years she was employed at Uncle Bubba's Seafood and Oyster House.
