I've since found a Variety report connected to the investigation conducted by the California state agency that filed the suit. https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/criminal-minds-abc-studios-abuse-tyrant-1202965261/ That was in 2018, as the URL would suggest. in 2019, a former crew member filed a sexual harassment suit against the cinematographer (fired in 2018) and many of the same corporate entities named in the 2020 suit.

The suit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing says the show’s production team knew of and condoned the behavior of cinematographer Gregory St. Johns throughout the 14 years he spent on “Criminal Minds,” and fired more than a dozen men who resisted his unwanted groping and sexual harassment. ‘With the aid of defendants, St. Johns created an unchecked intimidating, hostile, and offensive work environment on the set of Criminal Minds’, the lawsuit alleges.” https://apnews.com/bd8f33f2df8ab4b212172b112b81583f -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
