To me what makes this one more interesting is the excuse:

"He went on to state: 'While it was my intention to create an environment that replicated the themes of that musical during the rehearsal process, I have since come to understand that it is my conduct, not my intentions, which are relevant here."

See, he wasn't being a perv, he was just trying to "replicate the themes of that musical."

Ironic that the generation of 'free love' raised a generation of sexually repressed and intolerant Puritans.
