A former city of Ceres code enforcement unit secretary has filed a federal suit against former Police Sgt. Jason Coley, alleging that he created an unsafe and sexually tainted hostile work environment.
Teresa Aguilar filed suit on Nov. 23 in the U.S. District Court Eastern District demanding a jury trial for Coley’s alleged violations of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act and federal workplace protections. Now a Texas resident, Aguilar is seeking $4 million in damages.
