The thing is, it's a small company. Drama and gossip runs hot and heavy all the time. While drama and gossip is not always true, it doesn't take long to find out where it comes from.

If it took an outside investigator to identify and get people fired, their culture is fundamentally broken.

They aren't having issues identifying the origin of "drama and gossip". Dealing with sexual assault allegations internally is NOT the way to deal with such issues. Having a third party come in and act as human resources is standard and unquestionably the correct choice.

Hire someone to fire someone else, basically.

No. It's always easier for an outsider to see and bring up problems especially in a small group of people.

Everyone in that group is biased to one way or another
