Despite no one denying that any of the mentioned things by Bowling, it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed.

These are not cases of people saying stupid things once that made others uncomfortable. They did this shit repeatedly. You do not send your junk to others and go “WHOOOPS! My bad! Won’t happen again. Pinky promise ❤️”

These are the types of people who will go on to a Joe Rogan podcast and complain about everything being "woke".

You're not wrong, nothing excuses this kind of behavior. However, I can't help but feel no company can be held responsible for what an employee does outside of work without essentially giving scummy companies like and including EA an easy excuse to lay people off without paying for unemployment.
