Dan Snyder just completed the sale of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/washington-commanders">Washington Commanders</a> for $6.05 billion to a group of investors led by Josh Harris. However, the NFL and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/roger-goodell">Roger Goodell </a>weren’t going to just let him walk away. 



An independent investigation led by attorney Mary Jo White concluded Dan Snyder sexually harassed a team marketing employee and that the Commanders as a franchise didn’t report shared revenue to the NFL. That first accusation was made public on February of 2022 by Tiffani Johnston.

Though <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/why-commanders-owner-daniel-snyder-dont-want-to-testify-before-congress-20220621-0007.html">Dan Snyder</a> declared himself not guilty, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> just announced a historic punishment for the now former owner of the Washington Commanders.

<h2>Dan Snyder gets massive fine after investigation</h2>



Dan Snyder got a massive $60 million fine from the NFL following the results of the independent investigation around the Washington Commanders’ front office. In 2022, during a roundtable hearing at the US Congress, Tiffani Johnston explained the details of the incident.


 

 


According to the testimony of the victim, which was later confirmed by other members of the organization, Dan Snyder put his hand on her leg during a dinner related to work. Furthermore, a few minutes later, Snyder tried to force her into his car.

When asked about the situation, Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL, sent a very strong message: “The findings speak for themselves. The conduct substantiated in Ms. White’s findings has no place in the NFL. We strive for workplaces that are safe, respectful and professional. What Ms. Johnston experienced is inappropriate and contrary to the NFL’s values.”

The “Washington <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/who-are-the-last-10-super-bowl-winners" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Commanders</a>’ Toxic workplace culture” is what the House Oversight Committee has been investigating for some time. Several people went before Congress to testify on the matter but a key piece is still missing, Mr. Snyder.
Who is Dan Snyder? Apart from being the owner of the Washington Commanders he is also a businessman with multiple investments in other industries. Snyder was born in Maryland, he made his first million with a jet leasing business and finally in 1999 he bought the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-2022-2023-when-does-the-next-season-start-20220213-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Commanders </a>from Jack Kent Cooke’s state.
But Snyder is not the only one involved in the toxic workplace culture, there are other male executives who would also be accused of sexual harassment and discrimination against former female employees.
<h2>Why Commanders owner Daniel Snyder don’t want to testify before Congress?</h2>
According to Snyder’s attorney, Karen Patton Seymour, he cannot testify before congress due to Mr. Snyder being out of the country until the end of June. The hearing will be on June 22, in addition to the excuse that her client is in another country, she also included in a letter sent to the committee that Snyder had a “longstanding Commanders-related business conflict.”
<blockquote>
“Mr. Snyder’s business conflict was scheduled long before then and cannot be rescheduled. Moreover, your letter’s suggestion that Mr. Snyder may testify remotely does not address my concern that a virtual appearance would not sufficiently protect Mr. Snyder’s interest in having his counsel physically present with him.”
</blockquote>
But House Oversight Committee chairwoman Carolyn Maloney told Snyder’s lawyer that he can do virtual testimony the same way <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/who-are-the-last-10-super-bowl-winners" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL </a>commissioner Roger Goodell will do on June 21.
