Army General Suspended

What are these guys/gals thinking? Risk a long career by covering up sexual assault? I don't understand their motivation:

"Army suspends general for handling of sexual-assault case.

The Army announced Friday night that it has suspended a two-star general in Japan for failing to properly investigate a sexual-assault case, the latest U.S. military commander to get in trouble over the issue.

Maj. Gen. Michael T. Harrison, the commander of U.S. Army forces in Japan, was suspended Friday by Army Secretary John M. McHugh and Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army chief of staff, in response to allegations that he “failed in his duties as a commander to report or properly investigate” a reported sexual assault, the Army said in a statement."
