Colorado educator and MSLF Client Celeste Archer in this piece explains to Denver’s CBS News affiliate why she’s suing her employer, the University of Colorado-Denver, for barring her from campus without first investigating whether there was any truth to an anonymous allegation that she had Covid-19.
That allegation was false. But the school’s reflexive rush to judgment — something that’s become alarmingly commonplace as a result of the witch-hunting atmosphere produced by the panic — denied Archer her due process rights, according to the lawsuit.
“There’s no COVID-19 exception to the due process clause,” MSLF General Counsel Will Trachman told the reporter. “No matter how long Celeste Archer was barred from campus, the due process that she received beforehand was nothing.”
