ST, sorry about the work issue but it sounds like your friend/coworker should be able to vouch for you and back up your statement to HR so hopefully it'll all blow over soon. It sounds like HR is just following standard operating procedure, they really don't have a choice as they have to take any such allegation seriously even if it's completely off-base.

WW is accusing me of taking cash advances from my credit card and having drug fueled party binges. So she threatens to request full financial discovery and drug tests if i want more money. Thats laughable because I have done nothing and can prove it easily and if she wants to let the court decide the settlement then shes going to end up paying more than I would be asking for in the first place. Its sad how she is so disillusioned that she has convinced herself that I just went way off the rails.
I will drop the paperwork off with my attorney for them to rebut. I told WW that she would not threaten me into taking an unfair settlement.
Man you are getting character assassinations from every direction! Just stand true to who you are. Good job in letting her know you won't be bullied.
