Two Women Sue NASCAR Team Owner Bob Jenkins' Taco Bell Restaurant for Sexual Harassment
PARKERSBURG, W.Va., March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Two young women have filed separate lawsuits against Charter Foods, Inc., a company owned by NASCAR team owner Bob Jenkins. Both women claim they were sexually harassed on multiple occasions by a convicted sex offender when they worked at a Taco Bell in Parkersburg. The suits state Charter Foods knew Bo Gehling's status as a sex offender who just finished serving a jail sentence for violating his probation when they rehired him as a shift supervisor to oversee minor workers. Madison Jones and Kelsey Wilson were 17-year-old high school students working at the fast-food restaurant at separate times between 2020 and 2022. Both women felt Charter Foods' leadership failed to protect them from Gehling's inappropriate actions, according to the complaints.
