From an outside perspective this whole thing seems to be blown way out of proportion. It's a dumb mistake, apologize and move on? Why does this need to be world news, require government involvement and cost multiple people's careers?
“Why is everyone so mad about sexual assault?”
I've been touched in an inappropriate place when I didn't want to be more than once. I just said I didn't appreciate it, the person touching me apologized and that was it. I think it's absolute insanity to demand someones life to be ruined over something like that. People simply make bad judgement calls sometimes.
Let's be clear. If his life gets ruined he did it to himself. This whole thing would have been forgotten if he sincerely apologised on the first day but he is choosing to bully Jenni Hermoso instead.
