She said she was discriminated and retaliated against after reporting civil rights violations at Twin Towers jail.
A psychologist who said she was retaliated against for reporting civil rights violations at the Twin Towers jail has settled her lawsuit against the county’s Department of Mental Health for $1.65 million.
“There was some pretty outrageous treatment of the inmates, which Sara reported and consistently fought,” said attorney Michael Kent, one of her lawyers. Hough’s complaints about how she was treated on the job were deemed unsubstantiated, and shortly after, she was investigated twice by the Department of Mental Health and the Office of the Inspector General for her own workplace conduct, her suit stated.
While she was working at Twin Towers, Hough also started a private practice performing forensic interviews of inmates for the Los Angeles Superior Court. Hough’s superiors alleged that she was conducting those forensic interviews, and doing other unrelated tasks, while on the clock for the Department of Mental Health, she said in the suit.
