    investigation into sexual assault and harassment

    Assault and not just harassment.

    This makes more sense. The headline just says harassment which is generally a civil suit where you get sued but not arrested. Assault is criminal that you will be arrested over.

      Blizzard is based in the US. American executives rarely ever see punishment.

        I don’t know if I have ever heard of an American exec being properly punished by the law.

      Impossible. Can’t go after an entire firm. (I joke; but Blizzard is so fucking rotten to the core, even if I’d rather they not have been bought out by Microsoft)

    I first read this as an executive was arrested–not that five were arrested. Jfk Ubisoft.
