When disclosing very limited records about the extent of their agency participation in the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) July 14th 2022 workshop on the subject of “Proactively Combating Workplace Harassment,” the Colorado Civil Rights Division (CCRD) have refused to be entirely transparent about their obligations to prevent in the future similar employment related murders such as the one committed against Riley Whitelaw on June 11th 2022 at the Walgreens store in Colorado Springs (Colorado).
The Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) continues to be shocked by several aspects of the gruesome murder Riley Whitelaw was victim of on June 11th 2022. In the judgment of the AACL, the June 11th 2022 murder of Riley Whitelaw could have been prevented if [1] management personnel at Walgreens had taken the concerns of Riley Whitelaw seriously at the time she told them that she was being sexually harassed by Joshua Taylor Johnson (in Calendar Year 2021); [2] management personnel at Walgreens didn’t make Riley Whitelaw choose between extra-shifts with Joshua Taylor Johnson or limited amount of shifts at Walgreens in the absence of Joshua Taylor Johnson; [3] management personnel at Walgreens didn’t make Riley Whitelaw choose between extra-money while working with Joshua Taylor Johnson or a cut in her paycheck; [4] management personnel at Walgreens had in good-faith improved the working conditions of Riley Whitelaw by terminating the employment of Joshua Taylor Johnson; [5] management personnel at Walgreens were in good faith engaged in “proactively combatting workplace harassment.”
As a matter of principle, the AACL unequivocally denounces violence committed against women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their national origins, their religious affiliations, their disability status and/or their age groups. The AACL regrets the fact that more was not done to prevent the tragic June 11th 2022 murder of Riley Whitelaw at the Walgreens store in Colorado Springs (Colorado). The AACL also regrets the fact that more is not being done to prevent (in the future) similar tragedies to the one that transpired on June 11th 2022 at the Walgreens store in Colorado Springs (Colorado). It is the opinion of the AACL that Walgreens, the CCRD and the EEOC should bear some responsibility for the June 11th 2022 mur...
