Sony has responded to the claims that the reputation of the former director of Restart of Marathon Chris Barrett, who intended that his investigations would discover “consistent” behavior in which he would go to a “lower level employee and with whom she was not working and with which she was not working and directly, initially participated in friendly conversation, and progressively exceeded the limits “,” often references[ing] His wealth and his ability to advance their careers. “
In December, the former director of Restart of Marathon, Barrett, filed a lawsuit against Bungie and Sony for “deliberately destroying[ing his] Reputation falsely and publicly, insinuating that they had ‘investigated’ Barrett and ‘found’ that he had dedicated himself to sexual misconduct, “and to avoid paying him a payment of $ 45 million.
Bungie was fired by Bungie last year after an internal investigation into an alleged inappropriate behavior against female colleagues. In judicial documents, Barrett’s lawyers suggest that their former employer “didn’t care that none of that was true; they had blatant motivations for their shame .
As reported for the first time by Stephen Totilo de game File, Sony has now responded to Barrett’s statements.
“The research revealed that Barrett’s misconduct with each employee was consistent: he addressed a lower level employee with whom he was not working directly, initially participated in a friendly conversation, and progressively exceeded the limits with the employee making subtle references To his physicists appearance or expressing his interest romantically, “he declared his answer.
“Barrett tried to create a level of non -professional intimacy with his victims. He requested to follow Instagram personal accounts and would express anger to women if they did not respond to their messages. He would provide inappropriate issues such as their body, their relationships, their relationships, their relationships, their relationships , Their marriage or their desire to go out with them.
“I would demand that they participate in games of ‘truth or challenge’ sexually loaded and ‘ask me anything’. He sent them a text message at all hours and night. He offered to buy gifts. He often made reference to their wealth and richness and His richness and richness.
“Barrett’s predatory behavior caused the victims to seek the orientation of other bungie employees on how to administer the constant thrust of Barrett’s limits since he was a member of the long -standing company. For their works during these meetings.”
In response to Totilo’s report, Barrett’s legal representative said: “Sony continues with the text messages of cherry and cheerful cherry Avoid paying what they owed under your work agreements. These conversations, and nothing in Sony’s response provides a legitimate legal or objective basis to end Christopher for cause.
“Christopher is confident that when the entire evidence occurs, it will be clear that Sony dedicated himself to a scheme to strip him of his role and the capital awards that he obtained for his 25 years of loyal service to the company.”
