Demonstrating a 'pattern of misconduct' rather than a single isolated incident is crucial for investigators for several key reasons:
A pattern of misconduct suggests a deeper, potentially systemic problem with an organization, rather than an isolated bad actor.
Two or more similar incidents strengthens the credibility of the allegations and provides stronger evidence to support the claims of wrongdoing. When misconduct is documented over time, it becomes harder to dismiss or regard as isolated events or misunderstandings.
Repeated misconduct allows investigators to delve deeper into the root causes of the problem. This can involve examining policies, procedures, training and accountability systems to identify systemic failures contributing to the pattern.
A pattern of misconduct can help establish intent or prove that an organization or individual was aware of the problem but failed to address it. This can be crucial in proving negligence or even criminal intent in certain situations.
