Taylor Swift Finally Got Her Dollar

Not only is he a creep, but he’s bad at being petty.

Earlier this summer, Taylor Swift was sued by a radio creep named David Mueller. After he sexually assaulted her on a radio tour, he was fired from his station in Denver. And in what can only be considered the grossest move in modern history HE SUED HER for $3 million.

Earlier this summer however, the judge ruled in her favor and granted her countersuit: $1.

Taylor claimed that she asked for the dollar as a symbol for victims of sexual assault. The move landed her a spot on Time’s Person of the Year cover which highlighted “The Silence Breakers.”

In the article, Taylor said that she still hasn’t received that dollar.

“Even though awareness is higher than ever about workplace sexual harassment, there are still so many people who feel victimized, afraid and silenced by their abusers and circumstances. When the jury found in my favor, the man who sexually assaulted me was court-ordered to give me a symbolic $1. To this day he has not paid me that dollar, and I think that act of defiance is symbolic in itself.”

Well, it finally happened.

According to an article in Buzzfeed, DJ David Mueller sent that dollar in the mail last month. He also thought he was being smart and/or funny by sending it in the form of a Sacajawea gold dollar.

What point was he trying to prove exactly? It’s unclear. Either way though, justice has been served.
