A California jury awarded $1.7 million Friday to a woman who was spanked in front of her colleagues in what her employer, a home security company, called a camaraderie-building exercise. During the exercises, sales teams were encouraged to compete, and the losers were forced to eat baby food, wear diapers or get spanked with a rival company's metal-poled yard signs, according to court documents. The jury found that Janet Orlando was subjected to sexual harassment and sexual battery.
