Not only is it a problem for you, but it is in a way greenlighting this behaviour by Brand to continue if he's getting what he wants.

Tell Brand to eff off and deal with the fallout should it turn against you. If your employer isn't going to back you (there would have had to been witnesses) you don't want to and shouldn't be working there anyway. No job or money is worth putting up with that kind of bs and who knows if taking action or ripping a strip off of him would have stopped or prevented further instances from ever occurring.
You, yourself, note the gross power imbalance yet put blame on her for his future assaults? As a society, we should be getting past victim blaming. His misdeeds/assaults are wholly his doing.

Unless, of course, she wore provocative clothing because then she was asking for it. /s
