I don't want to comment on the post itself or the comments. But one thing confuses me.
Please help me to understand: Is it a custom thing in the US that legal issues like this are handled by an HR department within the company instead of the legal system?
The blog post states that she reported it to HR. Over here, if something like this came to their knowledge, they would be required to forward this to the proper authorities.
She can recount the whole incident and has at least two witnesses that confirm her story (more might show up during a police investigation). No authority (at least in this part of the world) would refuse to investigate this case and bring it in front of a court. Is this different in the US?
