INDIANAPOLIS — Her name is Lauren Roberts. She says she is not the only one accusing former chief of staff Thomas Cook of harassment.Born in Fort Wayne and a graduate of Carmel High School, she went to Indiana University before interning on Capitol Hill.
That is when she says a non-consensual sexual encounter happened with Thomas Cook, Mayor Joe Hogsett's former chief of staff. According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, consent can not be given if someone is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. "It was down to a choice between trying to stick with this job and pursue this part of my career or taking care of myself and surviving and so I chose myself,” Roberts said.
