He failed to report child rape in his workplace to the police, he shouldn't get to finish the season.
He reported it to HIS superiors, who assured him that it would be taken care of. So essentially you're condemming this man for trusting is his organization to do the right thing. I'm sure if you would have told him from the start that no one was going to do anything about it, he would have gone to the police directly.

He's not the least bit guilty in my eyes. It's a shame he had to spend his last few months the way he did.
