Woman settles with cities over Meals on Wheels groping case
A woman who worked for the defunct Northeast Lorain County Social Service Agency reached a settlement with the cities running the agency after a Meals on Wheels volunteer groping incident. The payout amount is undisclosed. Avon officials note the only open question is a potential deductible. Warren Guenther, convicted in 2004 of gross sexual imposition, challenged a renewed trial motion, while admitting lewd comments.
