&gt; My default assumption is that when there are claims of harassment, there is some substance to them<p>So, you think we are alle guilty of harassment, until proven innocent?   
I wonder what my fellow countryman Cesare Beccaria (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cesare_Beccaria" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cesare_Beccaria</a>) would think about this kind of mindset.<p>&gt; Harassment is hard to prove or disprove precisely because it usually doesn&#x27;t leave evidence.<p>But we live in a legal system that is based on proofs, not on suspects or claims.<p>&gt; and failure to enforce an agreement that his spouse should not work in the office.<p>Anybody knows that it&#x27;s safer to jump in the mouth of a T-Rex than doing something like that.  I think this is the reason he resigned: to save his marriage.
