if your being sexually harassed and your employers are doing nothing about it but seemingly punishing you for having spoken up about it I strongly urge you to seek legal counsel. I would suggest finding a local attorney who specializes in this type of action. Tell them the whole story, what the harassment was who you told what happened who is involved etc.

Once you explain the entire situation they will be able to decide if you seem to have a valid cause of action. If you do than together you can decide how to proceed. But it seems you attempted to handle it internally and the employer failed to help you so it would be in your best interest to seek outside help. good luck
