Let me explain something to you: if your a high profile person and you are accused of something you didn't do, you don't pay the accuser off because that only invites more accusers to come forward looking for a payoff. If you're innocent you fight it and force the accuser to expend time and money and also to have your day in court so you can prove them wrong and then you counter sue. With sexual harassment charges you NEVER settle if you're innocent...
