But James said she was humiliated after being pulled into her supervisor's office last fall, where she was asked if she was pregnant and then was let go. After James lost her job, she claims the school offered a position to her now-husband, even though they were aware he'd had sex before getting married, too.
During a news conference featured in a KTLA report, James said she felt she was treated unfairly.
"I was unmarried, pregnant and they took away my livelihood," James said.
I would say this was a case of the school not wanting to bother with somebody on maternity leave, using the excuse of her engaging in premarital sex. On top of that, assuming the school knew she was having sex with somebody they hired and she was planning to marry, the school felt her place was in the home, while he was "entitled" to have a job since he was going to be supporting a family. He did decline the offer, so at least he did the right thing.
It's totally illegal no matter which way you slice it.
