twistpeach's original post about an harassment incident at Arisia. I doubt as many have seen her followup. Please take a minute to check it out if you are interested in these issues and our community response.
(TL/DR version: It is important that the main response on this, especially for people who didn't know the perpetrator, is not to focus on shaming him or banning him but to focus on working within your organizations to wipe out institutionalized tolerance of bad behavior.)

I am very pleased to note that Detcon1's Safety officer has signed up with her local rape crisis center to be a volunteer and get the 40 hours of training included in that, and we are in contact with the Wayne County rape crisis center about getting some training here in Michigan for staff who want it.
