The Justice Department scolded the Obama
administration on Wednesday following a report on how sexual harassment
of all kinds was improperly handled at the department for years.
The Washington Post
reported that the DOJ’s inspector general had found “systemic” problems
with how complaints were addressed, with offending officials often
being let off the hook or even rewarded. The article cited investigative
reports on a lawyer who allegedly groped two female attorneys and a top
U.S. Marshals official who had sex with “approximately” nine women in
his office.
Though fresh complaints have been filed as recently as
August, the IG said some of the worst alleged offenses happened several
years ago in the department’s Civil Division.
