If there wasn&#x27;t anything wrong with it (in her mind) - it never would have made it to the founder.<p>What happens when you don&#x27;t fire the guy?  Say later on, for whatever reason, SHE has a bone to pick with the company.  Now the FOUNDER is the guy who got a harrassment case and &quot;didn&#x27;t take it seriously&quot;.  What&#x27;s the founder&#x27;s responsibility to protect his company?  Don&#x27;t see how he needs that risk.
