Former Detroit superintendent receives $650,000 from district to settle lawsuit

From The Detroit News: The Detroit school district has agreed to pay $650,000 to a former superintendent who sued the system after accusing the school board president of fondling himself repeatedly in front of her during a private meeting. Teresa Gueyser, who lost her job days after she made the accusation in 2010, has agreed to drop her lawsuit against the district and former school board President Otis Mathis. He was sentenced last year to two years of probation after pleading guilty to a felony charge of misconduct in office. Mathis joined the board in 2008 and resigned after Gueyser told him she would report his behavior.
