St. Paul mayor called herself ‘MILF’ and touched police chief’s thigh, sexual harassment suit claims

The St. Paul, Minnesota, police chief has sued the city’s first female mayor, claiming she sexually harassed him and “embarked on a campaign” of retaliation after he alleged she had abused him.

Chief Axel Henry, who has led the St. Paul Police Department since 2022, said Mayor Kaohly Her grabbed “his upper thigh beneath a conference-room table — not once, but twice — during a [St. Paul Police Department] budget meeting.”

Henry said in the lawsuit filed Wednesday that Her made sexual innuendos about the size of his penis and described herself to him as a “MILF,” which is an acronym for “mother I’d like to f—.”

Her, according to the lawsuit, also confided in Henry that her own marriage was in trouble and warned him that they “needed to be ‘friends’ or ‘this is not going to work.’”

The 73-page lawsuit filed in Ramsey County District Court, which names Her and the city as defendants, also includes previously reported allegations that Her created “a hostile and demeaning environment” for his staff by sending a meme about “good weinering.”

“Wienering” is an internet slang term for sexual intercourse and is frequently misspelled as “weinering.”
