Oberlin College was ordered to pay damages to the owners of Gibson’s Bakery, who accused the college of ruining their business by branding them as racists.
OBERLIN, Ohio — Just over six years after a shoplifting incident exploded into a nationwide controversy, Gibson’s Bakery has received all of the $36.59 million owed to it by Oberlin College.
“We can confirm that all funds have been disbursed and that the family is continuing with the process of rebuilding Gibson’s Bakery for the next generations,” says Brandon McHugh, attorney for the Gibsons told 3News on Thursday.
