A difficult case. Someone is telling untruths, but who?

I'm taking the former housekeeper's side on this one.

My feeling as well, but my emotions cloud it.

Why fire a house keeper for being TG? Or gay, or coloured, or none of the latter. I would have thought the only reason was that they were either dishonest, as in theft, or incompetent.

Strange world

I believe the house keeper. 'Disgusting' and 'freak' is typical slurs used by trans phobic sickos. I hope the house keeper wins big time!

I don't think she will.

Most situations like this are exempt from discrimination laws.
