High-end gym chain Equinox has been ordered to pay $11.25 million to one of their former trainers after her lawyers convinced a New York jury that her firing was racially motivated and not because she showed up for work late 47 times. In the jury trial, Robynn Europe, 39, did not contest Equinox's allegations about her tardiness but said other trainers who were late a similar amount of times were not punished, reports Online records show that Europe lives close to the Coney Island section of Brooklyn, New York, the southern-most tip of the borough. It's around 17 miles to the Equinox gym, located on 92nd street in the affluent Upper East Side neighborhood of Manhattan.
