Maegan Hall, the cop at the center of the Tennessee Police Sex Scandal that rocked the internet and spawned a massive wave of memes earlier this year, has now filed a lawsuit alleging that her male colleagues in the La Vergne police department sexually "groomed" her.

According to a report from the New York Post, the lawsuit alleges:

“Where Ms. Hall sought role models at her new job, she instead found predators. In place of offering professional development, her supervisors and the chief of police groomed her for sexual exploitation. They colluded in using their authority to systematically disarm her resistance and entrap her in degrading and abusive sexual relationships, even sharing tips on the best ways to manipulate and exploit her.”

The lawsuit, 51 pages long, contains hefty allegations of abusive relationship tactics (though many online took issue with use of the word grooming). It states that Sgt. Powell, the first of Hall's coworkers to engage her in an affair, was persistent in requests for sex and threatened to kill himself when Hall attempted to end the relationship.

Hall also claims that the Chief of the police department, Burrel Davis, "encouraged this behavior and shared in the pornography and sexual fantasy of mutually abusing Ms. Hall with his trusted supervisor, Ty McGowan." The lawsuit is seeking an unknown amount for "damages for lost wages, medical expenses, mental suffering, emotional distress and reputational harm."

Online, many commenters were not sympathetic to news of Hall's lawsuit, with several users claiming she was at fault for the scandal and that the lawsuit was an attempt to dodge accountability. There is no timeline set for Hall's case in court.
