Lisa Marra gets $130K settlement from Cochise County

Ex-county elections officer settles "toxic" workplace lawsuit

From the Herald/Review "BISBEE - Lisa Marra, former Cochise County Elections Director, has been provided a settlement payout of $130,000 through the Arizona Counties Insurance Pool, the county's risk management insurer, following claims of toxic work environment."
The article continues "As of Tuesday afternoon, it is not know if the payout will increase the cost of the county's annual premium...
However, it raises the total of legal costs incurred by the actions of Judd, Crosby and Stevens to force a hand count of ballots in the 2022 midterm election to more than $300,000"
Marra responded in email to the Herald/Review that the Board of Supervisors as her employer did not have the right "to harass, threaten or intimidate employees."
