Pervnado: Panthers' Jerry Richardson

Disgusting allegations emerge against Panthers owner

Allegations have surfaced against Panthers owner Jerry Richardson and the environment he has run in Carolina, containing both subtle and overt charges of sexual harassment and misconduct that at once feel stunning and familiar.

Richardson, the 81-year-old principal owner of the Panthers since their inception in 1995, has reached at least four “significant” monetary settlements with former employees due to his behavior, racially slurred a black Panthers scout and used his power and status to lord over a disturbing environment, according to a wide-reaching investigation by Sports Illustrated.
