¶98 Shoemaker knew these rumors to be false as he had signed the settlement agreement specifying that Denke would receive $508 in medical bills and restoration of her sick leave. Shoemaker also knew that the settlement agreement obligated the City not to retaliate against Denke as a result of her decision to file the HRC complaint. Shoemaker believed, however, that the community’s rumors of a higher settlement amount made him look bad and that “a finger had been pointed at him as a representative of the City.” As a result, Shoemaker felt unburdened to retaliate against Denke in direct contravention of the settlement agreement.
