Last month, a daughter's Facebook post cost her father an $80K age-discrimination settlement (more on that  here). Last week, with some Facebook shenanigans, the plaintiff in a sexual harassment case screwed herself over.

Heather Painter used to work for Dr. Aaron Atwood D.D.S.

According to Ms. Painter, one day at work, the good doctor — err, dentist – just happened to climb on top of her with his pants undone and held her down.

Dr. Atwood didn't exactly deny those allegations; however, he claimed that he was only attempting to tickle Ms Painter and that the sexual nature of their relationship was consensual. (Ms. Painter was Dr. Atwood's babysitter, too. Not kidding about that.)
