I don't want to sound cynical but I think it's ridiculous that the same people who tell victims of sexual assault and harassment to 'toughen up' perceive this suicide as evidence that we should be more lenient to potential perpetrators.
What this man chose to do was horrible, however the investigation of his conduct is in no way to blame for his suicide. His case was dealt with in a typical way for any workplace misdemeanour and if he was found innocent then he would have been reinstated to his position immediately.
Carl Sargeant's death was tragic, however blaming sexual harassment investigations for this is irrational when there are mental health factors which clearly should be taken into account in causing Sergeant to react in such a way to the allegations he was presented with.
