Investigation results: DeKalb commissioner sexually harassed assistant

Channel 2's Mark Winne spoke to the commissioner, who denies it all.

Audio recordings and text messages validate allegations that DeKalb County Commissioner Greg Adams sexually harassed an assistant, according to an investigative report prepared for the county.

The report said Adams called his assistant "sexy, beautiful and intelligent," sent her a late-night text message inviting himself to her room, and repeatedly asked for pictures of her in a bikini.

The assistant, former District Director Ashlee Wright, is seeking a $750,000 settlement from the county.

Adams says he never sexually harassed Wright and his words were taken out of context.
