Ex-employee sues Centerra SRS for racial discrimination
Georgia woman Marcalena Tremble Brown files a federal complaint against Centerra SRS alleging racial discrimination and unfair dismissal after her 16 years of service at Savannah River Site. She seeks 500000 in punitive damages and 3 million in compensatory awards for distress and mental suffering. Brown left an M4 rifle unattended in a women’s restroom for five minutes on May 2, 2015, and was terminated eighteen days later. A white officer committing a similar offense was not terminated, the complaint notes. The EEOC filing was not timely, the commission was served a right to sue notice, and Brown seeks a jury trial. Brown questions whether the company disciplined both personnel appropriately. Centerra SRS has not yet served, per a spokesman.
