Almost six years ago, a family-run bakery in Ohio that has been in operation for more than a century embarked on a David vs. Goliath legal battle against Oberlin College to defend its name against false accusations of racism over stopping a shoplifter.
Last month, Gibson’s Bakery was able to close the book on the legal battle, after the school agreed to finally pay $36.59 in damages after the Ohio Supreme Court declined to take up an appeal on the judgment.
Lorna Gibson, the owner of the bakery, spoke to Fox News Digital this week and described being resolute in her mission of restoring the family business to its former glory after it was gutted by the false accusations.
"I have a lot of work ahead of me. I can actually get some stock back in my store and hire some employees," Lorna Gibson said in a phone interview Monday, noting that she can now afford to repair compressors and freezers that conked out over the last few years. "So I am going to bring it back and get it going strong is my plan."

Gibson recounted that tensions spread across the Oberlin campus Nov. 9, 2016, one day after former President Trump was elected to the White House.
"My understanding, from what I heard, was that it had a lot to do with the election. And [Lorna's husband David Gibson] had mentioned to me that he had been told that things were very volatile around town because of the election," she said.
