STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. – A 17-year-old girl said she was sexually assaulted by a co-worker when she worked at Jimmy John’s in Sterling Heights.
The girl, who has a disability, and her family are suing the franchise of the store. Deposition in the case is already underway.
Testimony from the manager of the store said she and the owners of the store knew one of their employees was a convicted sex offender.
Lawyers for the company that owns the Jimmy John’s responded to the lawsuit and included an email that said because of the employee’s criminal background he could not manage staff members.
