Ex-DJ sends Taylor Swift a Sacagawea coin as payment for groping case

Denver — A former radio DJ who was ordered to pay a symbolic $1 to Taylor Swift for groping her at a photo op says he mailed her a Sacagawea coin last week.

David Mueller provided a letter to The Associated Press showing the payment was sent on 28 November. Mueller previously told the AP he intended the coin featuring a prominent Native American woman as a final jab at the singer in a case her side called a win for all women.

Swift was among the "Silence Breakers" named as Time magazine's Person of the Year. In a story published on Wednesday, she said she hadn't received the dollar.

Mueller had sued Swift claiming she falsely accused him of groping her and sought up to $3million. A federal jury in Denver ruled for Swift.
