Could be wrong but I believe the only one I saw that used the r word publicly (or said they were drugged) was the hockey player, and he said that occurred off campus. Guessing there might have been other accusations of that among the plaintiffs that were not public.

Where did the rapes happen? On campus?

i'm not on top of everything RUS wrestling, but i saw a post that Sidakov was/is out until after worlds. is that not the case?

Nearly 180 came forward and said they were drugged and raped.

Drugging and raping athletes? Did this occur on campus/ in athletic facilities? I guess I didn't look into this far enough. I thought he was touching athletes and showering with them.

For their own protection masks are fine. Especially when dealing with professional anarchists.

I recommend everyone watch this. Super messed up. It starts off as a kind of joke of hey this weird old guy fondles our balls too much when checking us out, well that was weird and creepy, and progresses in to literal drugging and rapes. Thousands of victims. I hate to say it, but I can easily see how this went down considering the time period. Coaches tell the athletes to suck it up, focus on wrestling, not worth getting the Ohio State brass involved. Instead Hellickson told the doc to knock it off and that's it. Coaches didn't realize the trauma it inflicted on some of these guys, and instead of admitting they knew it was happening, they said they were clueless and dug a hole they can't get out of. For Jordan to tell the truth now would be an admittance of being a liar and admitting they didn't give a *I poop my pants, don't laugh at me* back in the day. Not to mention that Strauss was the roid doctor for the University, punishing him meant risk of exposing the PED use. So messed up.

Don’t forget the Mich. St. gymnastics doctor who will never get out of prison. Bottom line is there are bad people everywhere so people must always be aware and observant. Teach your children and loved ones the same. If you or someone you know feels uncomfortable with something report it to the appropriate authorities. If no satisfactory action is taken accordingly, then go to the law authorities, newspapers, media, whoever it takes to seek justice.

The OP asked how certain individuals could witness abuse yet not stop it directly. The answer is the same for the thousands (possibly tens of thousands) of people in the Catholic church who either witnessed or had knowledge of such abuse yet did very little about it.

Good guess. Hard to put the body through an organ transplant while infected w staph.

A ref abused in the shower? How is that possible? Refs pretty much always get their own changing room w shower. Even for high school games.

I don't believe you.

Solid pick. Hard to argue. My pick goes to Daniel Day Lewis.

To be fair those just about cover it...

I agree. A speeding ticket making the news? Really?

To start a thread Jimmy needs a way to tie in one of these schools; PSU, Iowa, Ok State, Mich, tOSU. His range is limited

Yonkers, a bit north of NYC. https://www.kdtrainingcenter.com/

There isnt any need for whataboutisms or comparisons. This thread is about the Ohio St abuse scandal. If you wanna talk about the Catholic church one start a new thread. They can both be horrendous situations.

Now do the Catholic church with its thousands of abused children.

Doesn’t seem obvious it was a police car. Are you backing off your prior claim that it didn’t have to be a police car?

You’re just being ridiculous. The officer did nothing wrong. If this were Fallujah like you alluded to that idiot would be dead. where do the police get the impression violent rioters mean them harm. I have no idea…. it’s probably a figment of their imagination right?

Yes, because this is something that is very very rare for someone to do. My first thought when I saw this this morning was how ridiculous it is this is top line news.

Kid, this ain't the hill to die on right now. Read the room.

Im not defending the unethical and obviously immoral Dr. Strauss. The guy was a disgrace to the profession and the University. However, no one thinks an 18 year old is a child. Can children vote in elections or be drafted into war?
