> sexual harassment in the workplace

I had only heard about a consensual relationship.

Which most company policies allow in some form. Peer-to-peer is straight forward. Supervisor-subordinate (relevant here) is less tolerated. You just have to disclose it and maybe sign a "love contract."

Parent is oblivious to this and has already made up their mind that these policies don't exist

> The fact the he did it, and that she got promoted seals his fate as a predator in my mind.

Wokeness demands the most uncharitable interpretation of events.
If there is an asymmetry in power, hardly consensual.
