Two Connecticut bar managers were unable to convince a jury that they were fired in retaliation for reporting another manager’s sexual misbehavior.

Mystic, Conn., resident Daniel Van Kruiningen and Kimberly Chatterton of Norwich, Conn., were assistant manager and club manager of Ultra 88, an upscale lounge at the Mohegan Sun casino on Dec. 7, 2003. After hours, Chatterton was checking on other bars owned by her employer, and at Lucky’s Lounge she came upon its manager, George Wright, two male bartenders, and a 20-year-old employee, who ran from the bar.
