Letter to Mark Hurd Released

POSTED December 30, 2011

A letter to former HP CEO Mark Hurd claiming sexual harassment against an event hostess for the company has been released to the public.

Hurd resigned from HP in August 2010 after an internal HP investigation. He is now co-President of Oracle after being hired by friend Larry Ellison.

The 2010 letter was sent by attorney Gloria Allred on behalf of her client Jodie Fisher, who was hired as an event hostess for HP in 2007. She was paid $30,000 to host six events in different cities to interact with clients.

HP has attempted to prevent the release of the embarrassing letter until Delaware Supreme Court ruled the letter should be made public.

Below is the eight-page letter from Allred to Hurd.
