The below post is from Meredith Barne’s Blog. Up until Saturday, I had never heard of this story. If you’ve never heard of the Halliburtons, do some research. You won’t be surprised that their name is attached to something so wicked. It breaks my heart to hear stuff like this happening. Our world grows darker by the day.
Yesterday, several blogs/news outlets posted outraged reactions to Equal Opportunity Publications’ announcement that they would name KBR, a Houston-based energy company, a top employer for women in 2011. Despite the fact that KBR has 9 pending sexual assault lawsuits against them. One of the most grievous and tragic is detailed here. There are also links back to previous reports so you can trace the full story, should you care to. I recommend you only do so if you have a strong stomach.
