A Cobb County woman who sued Waffle House chirman Joe Rogers Jr. for sexual harassment was indicted today, along with her attorneys, for illegally videotaping an intimate encounter between herself and her former boss.
Mye Brindle, who worked for the Waffle House executive as a personal assistant for 10 years, hired attorneys David Cohen and co-counsel John Butters to represent her in June 2012. A few weeks later, according to court records, Brindle videotaped herself performing a sex act on Rogers in his bedroom.
On July 16, 2012, Cohen wrote a letter to Rogers seeking a sitdown regarding the sexual harassment allegations. A failure to do so could result in media attention, criminal charges, divorce and the destruction of families, the letter said.
Brindle, Cohen and Butters were indicted by a Fulton County grand jury for conspiracy to commit extortion, conspiracy to commit unlawful eavesdropping or surveillance and unlawful eavesdropping or surveillance.
