Summary

This document is a detailed rebuttal written by a high-profile scientist/professor (identifiable as Lawrence Krauss by context) responding to a list of sexual harassment allegations provided by a reporter or investigator. The author systematically denies or clarifies six specific items, including a 2006 hotel encounter he claims was consensual/platonic, and a 2008 complaint by a student at Case Western Reserve University which he argues was informal and resolved. He also references investigations by ASU and ANU which he claims cleared him of wrongdoing regarding third-party anonymous complaints.
