 Ryder, who was hired as an independent contractor for Operation Underground Railroad, had been required to go to a strip club in Salt Lake City so that she could prove herself to Tim Ballard and Matt Cooper, where she was sexually touched under false pretense, according to the lawsuit. On a separate occasion, Ryder had claimed that she was badly injured during an OUR training and that Ballard had refused to call an ambulance because he did not want the event on record.
