A former senior vice president of Wells Fargo has filed a lawsuit alleging she was raped by one colleague, and that three other coworkers enabled the assault.

Feb. 6, 2023, 7:50 PM UTCA former senior vice president of Wells Fargo has filed a lawsuit alleging she was raped by a colleague, and is accusing three other co-workers of enabling the assault.

It was not immediately clear whether Pagel continues to work at Wells Fargo. Reached by text message, he referred a request for comment to Wells Fargo, which issued a brief statement. Afterward, David Weitzel, a senior vice president named as a defendant by Doe, walked Doe back to her hotel room. Soon thereafter, Pagel knocked on her door, forced his way in and raped her, the complaint states.

Doe initially held off on making a formal complaint about the alleged attack through Wells Fargo’s formal channels because she was “too embarrassed and mortified” at the idea of doing so, “catastrophizing scenarios in her head whether she would be believed, blamed, ridiculed, retaliated against and somehow further victimized for speaking up,” the complaint states.
