This includes amazing quotes, such as:
In a subsequent conversation between Knight and Nelson's husband, Knight said Nelson had not done nothing wrong and that "she was the best dental assistant he ever had," the decision read.
At one point, Knight told Nelson that "if she saw his pants bulging, she would know her clothing was too revealing," the decision read.
At another point, in response to an alleged comment Nelson made about the infrequency of her sex life, Knight responded: [T]hat's like having a Lamborghini in the garage and never driving it."

I read some comments by an employment lawyer and she said the courts have been pretty consistent that employers can fire employees because of jealous or potentially jealous spouses.

Can't wait for the first time someone challenges their firing in court claiming they're too ugly to be fired for being too hot.
Maybe they will even use an internet Hot or Not poll as evidence.
