Renee Ferguson’s reporting of a colleague - another man, not Paine - is included in a 17-page document forwarded to the federal court as part of a sexual harassment claim. The 47-year-old alleges that she was sent explicit messages by Shannon Tubb, Paine’s brother-in-law. But the harassment complaint did not relate to either of them.
