Shortly after, Lowery says Cassidy asked her for help with boxes in a back room. When her back was turned, she claims, the chef "pressed his body against hers, slid his hands from the outside of her hips to the outside of her thighs, and pushed his erect penis against [her] buttocks,” the complaint says. She says she quickly left the room. She says she “did not feel comfortable reporting” the incident to the then-general manager, Richard Winland, as it was known that Winland and Cassidy were "close friends.”
