Is this okay with you? Private discipline for reprehensible or criminal behaviour is an effective way of ensuring the continuation of abuse and does little more than enable the abuser and communicate toleration for terrible behaviour to the victim.

It's distasteful and ugly, but the only way the culture changes is for its warts to be exposed under a blinding spotlight so they can be eradicated.
