Perry says Hill's account of her relentless pursuit of him is sheer fantasy. "I'm not as pretty as I used to be," she says. "But even today, how many men do I have to threaten to have sex? Give me a break. You don't have to force somebody. I'm sorry, I was never that desperate. Especially for Mike Hill."
The ball is now in federal court. Hill says he hopes that the case sends a strong message to prison administrators that harassment cuts both ways. "Men don't report this kind of stuff," he says. "But I haven't talked to one staff member who wanted me to let this drop."
