St. Louis County yesterday agreed to a $10.25 million settlement over a workplace discrimination case.
A jury last year awarded Lt. Keith Wildhaber nearly $20 million after hearing testimony that commanders passed him over for promotion 23 times. Wildhaber, who is gay, also allegedly was retaliated against for filing a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
