It had nothing to do with this sexual assault. They offered him a contract for crying out loud.
The Sens had four pending RFAs that season. Norris, Brannstrom, Joseph, and Formenton. All were offered QOs and became RFAs, which is pretty normal procedure. The NDA was dropped on July 26th and the 2018 scandal became public knowledge. The Sens agreed to terms with the other three RFAs by training camp, and Formenton signed in Switzerland with no further attempts to sign him.

The timeline still supports the notion the the Sens learned something about Formenton and broke off talks.
