St Paul police chief sues mayor, alleging she called herself a ‘MILF,’ sexually harassed him and retaliated

St. Paul, Minnesota, Mayor Kaohly Her made explicit sexual comments — including innuendos about body parts — and engaged in a campaign of harassment and retaliation against the city’s police chief, according to a lawsuit.

Police Chief Axel Henry, who has served as St. Paul’s top law enforcement officer since 2022, alleges Her made multiple inappropriate comments, including one incident in which she referred to herself as a “MILF” and made sexually suggestive comments regarding his genitalia, according to the 73-page complaint.

The suit also alleges Her made unwanted physical contact with Henry, including placing her hand on his upper thigh beneath a conference table during a budget meeting.

In addition, Her reportedly told the chief that her marriage was in trouble, stating that she and Henry “needed to be friends” or “this was not going to work” and emphasizing that they needed a “close relationship,” according to local reporting on the suit.

The lawsuit further details allegations that Her frequently visited the police department gym when she knew Henry was present, referred to him and other employees as “beefy” and “simulated an orgasm” while exerting herself near them during workouts.

During an awards ceremony where Henry was wearing a Mobile Field Force ribbon abbreviated “MFF,” Her allegedly asked what the letters stood for before replying, “Oh, I thought it said MILF so maybe I could get one.”

The filing outlines another incident from December, when Henry met with Her and St. Paul Port Authority President Todd Hurley at a cigar lounge to discuss moving the downtown police station. During the meeting, Her allegedly threatened that she would tell people the chief “grabbed her a–” if she did not get her way.

After Henry filed an internal complaint regarding her behavior, Her and her administration “embarked on a campaign to retaliate against and discredit Chief Henry,” the suit alleges. Henry claims city officials excluded him from decisions, withheld requested records and released a “sanitized” two-page summary of an independent investigation to downplay her conduct.

“An independent investigation did not substantiate claims of sexual harassment or retaliation against any city employee,” Her’s office said, according to Fox Minneapolis. 

“The mayor will continue to lead Saint Paul and follow the recommendations of the report. Beyond that, the City of Saint Paul doesn’t comment on active litigation.”
