Regardless of your job, everyone should be treated well and not overseen by a manipulative and sexist boss.

Some quotes:

“he routinely manipulated and intimidated other prosecutors — often young women — while repeatedly showing gender bias. The report also sustained numerous claims that he made inappropriate and disparaging remarks.”

“Otis Bruce is known to prey upon the newest deputy district attorneys (DDAs) when they first enter the office,” one deputy wrote, “to set up a quid-pro-quo arrangement by intimating that he was solely responsible for getting them their jobs, that he is responsible for their advancement within the office, and that he is responsible for virtually everybody else advancing within the office. While doing this he also makes certain to disparage and undermine other DDAs in the office.”
