IBM settles with widow of exec who ki---d himself after layoff

IBM has settled the age-discrimination case brought against it by the widow of a sales executives who took his own life after being laid off.

Denise Lohnn and Big Blue reached a tentative agreement on March 31, and US District Judge Lewis Liman stayed the case pending a decision on whether sensitive documents at the heart of the legal battle would be made public. On Monday, the court dismissed the case as settled.

That settlement was, funnily enough, brokered about a month after the unsealing of partially redacted internal IBM communications disparaging older Big Blue employees as "Dinobabies" and calling for their extinction at the company

"Discrimination of any kind is entirely against our culture and who we are at IBM, and there was (and is) no systemic age discrimination at our company," said LaMoreaux

That's encouragement enough.. just record everything before you go out the door. Then sue and get out-of-court settlement.

So much skeletons in the closet that IBM can't let see the light of day in court..
