So was the Starocci thing a fluke...???

When the story originally came out, I saw on USA Wrestling's website, under "Ineligible Members", that his name was on the "Interim Membership Suspension" list. It's not there anymore. I assume that means USA Wrestling did an investigation and didn't find anything to keep him suspended. I would think any accusation of sexual misconduct would be taken very seriously by USA wrestling due to affiliation with kids clubs.

He isn't listed on the NLWC athletes list, but who knows if he even planned to be.

Any thoughts? Not a troll job...legitimately don't understand how there was supposedly video and now nothing...??

If the allegations aren’t true then that’s a good thing for the sport as we approach the season.

To be clear the only video that was referenced in the story was of Starocci entering and leaving the locker room at the time Bartlett claimed his stuff was stolen. And according to the article the police reviewed that video and found nothing to support Bartlett's claim.

I think the police said that only Carter And Kasak were the 2 in the video that left during the time in question and they were only able to interview and question Kasak.

Never underestimate the power of the CaelGB.

But seriously, haven’t seen an article from that particular journalist since.  But  also haven’t seen a redaction from the Daily Collegian, and to be fair, it’s possible he graduated.  In the least, it must have been very shoddy journalism, as no doubt that some reputable entities  looked into it and all passed.

Not even tabloids picked up the story and they’ll print anything that is even mildly reputable. Daily Collegian was literally the only media outlet to run the story which is super weird.

A fluke?
