Brian France says that offcial never complained to supervisors

Well our first counter accusation in the Mauricia Grant case has been made as NASCAR head Brain France said that Grant never complained about being harassed or discriminated her by co-workers.

"The disappointing thing is she makes a lot of claims, none of them reported," said France. "The fact that it went on as she stated, for many months, but never bothered to tell anyone at management what was going on -- which is what our policy says -- is very disappointing."
"We would have liked, if those type things were in fact going on, we would have loved to have done an investigation and a review of such an allegation," France said.
Some of Grant's accused have also shot back like former NASCAR official Mike Wilford.

"Graphic and lewd jokes? She participated in them. She laughed, she would never say it was inappropriate," Wilford said. "She asked to be called the only two names she was ever called. She called herself Mo Money all the time."

Grant also accused Wilford of trying to make her his mistress by offering rubies and diamonds to her.
"That's just one the many incidents she's twisted into her favor in the suit," Wilford said. "Yes, I made the joke, but it was a joke because Mo used to go around telling everyone she wanted to marry a rich man and be a kept woman, and that was all she was after. She told everyone that, and now she's twisting behavior she both initiated in and participated in."

"He was persistent about asking if I would be his mistress," Grant fired back. "When he pulled the diamonds and rubies out, he wanted me to know he had the financial capability to take care of me. I am guessing he came forward because he was embarrassed that his wife would find out he was hitting on me."

Oh boy, oh boy. This thing is getting more juicy than a soap opera, all we need is a person in a coma to be taken advantage of and Bing Crosby's daughter shooting someone and we'll have one hell of a show.
