奥伯林学院已同意向俄亥俄州学校的家族面包店支付超过 3600 万美元,这家面包店在入店行窃事件中被错误地指控为种族主义者。 吉布森面包店在 2017 年对进步学院提起诉讼,指控他们站在三名黑人学生一边,他们声称该店在前一年被抓到从商店偷窃时对他们进行了种族歧视。 上个月俄亥俄州最高法院驳回了欧柏林就 2019 年陪审团裁决提出的上诉,该裁决发现,当一名工作人员制作传单声称吉布森有种族定性的历史时,该学院诽谤了这家面包店。 该学院在周四的一份声明中宣布了该奖项,称董事会决定不再进一步推动此事".我们对法院的裁决感到失望。然而,这并没有削弱我们对法律的尊重和我们法律制度的完整性,”这所小型文理学院说。 尽管如此,欧柏林表示,它“已开始全额支付吉布森面包店案中 3659 万美元的判决”,并补充说它正在等待面包店的银行信息以支付损害赔偿金和利息。 “这件事让每个人都很痛苦。我们希望诉讼的结束将开始我们整个社区的康复,”该学院的声明继续说道。 面包店老板 Lorna Gibson 在上周为 The Post 发表的一篇文章中说,在学生 Jonathan Aladin、Endia Lawrence 和 Cecelia Whettstone 被指殴打她的儿子 Allyn Gibson 之后,她的家人的生活在 2016 年 11 月的抢劫案当晚“发生了翻天覆地的变化” – 向警察声称 Allyn 对他们进行了种族歧视并袭击了他们。
Three students claimed they were racially profiled when they were caught stealing from the store.
三名学生声称,当他们从商店偷窃时,他们受到了种族歧视。A jury found that Gibson’s was defamed by Oberlin after a staffer made flyers claiming they had a history of racially profiling and urged people to boycott the shop.陪审团发现,在一名工作人员制作传单声称他们有种族貌相的历史并敦促人们抵制这家商店后,Gibson's 被 Oberlin 诽谤。
Oberlin says it will pay family business Gibson’s bakery $36M after defamation case ends.
Oberlin 表示,在诽谤案结束后,它将向家族企业 Gibson 的面包店支付 3600 万美元。
Oberlin College has agreed to pay over $36 million to the family-owned bakery the Ohio school falsely accused of being racist in a shoplifting incident.
Gibson’s Bakery filed suit against the progressive college in 2017 for siding with three black students who claimed the store racially profiled them when they were caught stealing from the shop the year before.
The hefty payout comes after the Ohio Supreme Court last month denied Oberlin’s bid to hear its appeal of the 2019 jury verdict, which found that the college defamed the bakery when a staffer made flyers claiming that Gibson’s had a history of racial profiling.
The college announced the award in a statement Thursday, saying that the Board of Trustees decided not to push the matter further.
We are disappointed by the Court’s decision. However, this does not diminish our respect for the law and the integrity of our legal system,” the small liberal arts college said
Still, Oberlin said it “has initiated payment in full of the $36.59 million judgment in the Gibson’s bakery case” adding that it was awaiting bank information from the bakery to pay the damages and interest.
“This matter has been painful for everyone. We hope that the end of the litigation will begin the healing of our entire community,” the college’s statement continued.
Bakery owner Lorna Gibson said in a piece for The Post last week that
her family’s lives were “turned upside town” the night of the November
2016 robbery after the students Jonathan Aladin, Endia Lawrence and
Cecelia Whettstone – who allegedly beat up her son Allyn Gibson –
claimed to cops that Allyn racially profiled and assaulted them.
Gibson’s nightmare unfolded when one of the students used a fake a ID to try to buy a bottle of wine, while swiped two more bottles, court papers said.
Allyn, who is white, chased that student out of the store — and a scuffle ensued between him and the three students.
The arrests caused an uproar with hundreds of students and teachers picketing outside the bakery the next day with signs claiming they were white supremacists.
One college staffer created a flyer claiming “LONG ACCOUNT of RACIAL PROFILING and DISCRIMINATION,” urging people to boycott the shop.
The students eventually admitted that they weren’t racially profiled at the time of their guilty pleas to charges of attempted theft in 2017.
But the business – which used to hold catering accounts with the college – suffered greatly financially amid the scandal and had to lay off half of their staff and cut operating hours down, Gibson said in her essay.
Before dying of cancer in 2019, Gibson’s husband David made his wife promise to keep the bakery doors open. Her father-in-law who started the company and wanted to see its name cleared, died earlier this year.
“As the truth prevailed and the Gibsons were vindicated, they can now rebuild their 137-year-old family business and continue to serve their cherished community,” Gibson’s lawyer Owen Rarric told The Post.
