Does this report say that the investigator talked to Julie, or atleast tried to talk to Julie?

That was one of Julie's original complaints about the original post.

If I'm investigating a complaint by someone, it seems reasonable that the person making the complaint would be the main person to talk to. Otherwise its impossible to say you did a thorough investigation.

Rhoma identified the employees she wanted to talk to based on an initial list we provided, the evidence she gathered, employees who asked to speak with her, people Julie asked her to speak with, and anyone else she determined was relevant, including Julie herself

You have to read the article if you are going to comment on it.

Ummm, that just says that Julie was put on an initial list. It does not say in any clear way that the investigator contacted and interviewed Julie.

So to quote another hacker new user "You have to read the article if you are going to comment on it." :)

I'd think that "people Julie asked her to speak with" strongly implies some direct communication between them...
