No, I am saying that coercing people to have sex they do not want is rape, which is a criminal (not civil) offense, regardless of one’s contract with their employer.

I’m not familiar with the case, but if the other party was consenting and of legal age, there isn’t much anyone can do criminally, it isn’t technically illegal even if it is immoral. Rape has a very specific definition.
