Alright, USA Swimming.
Yes, you should apologize. Step up the protection of
our youth and ban these idiots who think they can
get their jollies out on the youth of America.
Do not become like the catholic church and try to sweep
this BS under the rug. Take charge and accept the problems
and DEAL WITH IT!
The police are the first place these people should have gone in my opinion, not to USA swimming. I read one story that USA swimming dismissed a complaint because the victim 'could not get another coach to corroborate it'. I think it is regrettable that that particular family did not go to the police.
I agree. This is a criminal issue that the police should deal with, not an organization. Once the police start to investigate, then USA-S should get involved and suspend the coach until the investigation is complete. I am a former director of a Victim Assistance Program and married to a former police officer.
