In my opinion the person who is subject to harassment is a victim and not
a target. The word "target" does not convey any empathy.
Well said.
IMHO, Target is suitable term with responder and reporter, we never no who
is the real victim sometimes if no witnesses. After investigation we get
to know if target is victim. If you assume witnesses available then
"victim" is the right word replacing "target" but still we need to change
the other two terms.
