People seem to know, or claim to know, a lot more than has actually been reported. Who is to say the complainant "went to the media" rather than have her lawyers approach MLSE directly? I'd wager that no one on this forum has any info on what happened before, during or after the events that are alleged to have happened. And again, I will remind everyone that civil suits are a matter of public record. Westhead might have been tipped off to the suit by anyone who knew about it, even a friendly clerk in the courthouse. Or he could have simply looked at all recently filed lawsuits and stumbled upon this. More than one journalist over the years has done that simple act of digging through what's available.
