House Intelligence Committee finds CIA mishandled sexual assault and harassment claims | CNN Politics

The House Intelligence Committee, in an eight-page report summarizing the findings of its year-long investigation into the agency’s handling of sexual harassment and sexual assault, found that there was “confusion and disorder in the process for reporting” allegations. Victims, the report found, were “deterred from coming forward because victims did not have anonymity and were unable to seek confidential assistance.”

Perhaps most damning, the report found that “victims were aware of little to no accountability or punishment for the perpetrators of the assaults or harassment often because of an inadequate investigatory process.”
