    I'm not too familiar with the details of all of these cases, but if coaches and USA Swimming brass are aware of these cases of abuse, aren't the parents also aware of what is going on? As a parent of two young swimmers, if I were to learn that there was some sort of sexual abuse going on within our team, I wouldn't waste my time contacting anybody at USA Swimming. They will find out what they need to know soon enough. Matters like these should be taken to law enforcement, IMHO.
