At least 100 former students have reported firsthand accounts of sexual misconduct (Ohio State)

At least 100 former students have reported firsthand accounts of sexual misconduct by former Ohio State University physician Richard Strauss, the university announced in an update Friday.

Ohio State first announced the investigation into Strauss in April, stemming from allegations of sexual abuse during his time as a team physician for the university's wrestling team. Since then, the investigation has continued to expand, with athletes from 14 men's varsity sports and former patients of Student Health Services reporting allegations about Strauss.

Investigators also expect to conduct more than 100 additional interviews and are also "in regular communication" with the Franklin County Prosecutor's Office, Ohio State said.

Since the investigation launched, investigators also determined Strauss established a private medical practice in Columbus, where individuals have reported additional acts of sexual misconduct occurred. Investigators are also looking into whether Strauss may have examined high school students during his time at Ohio State.

The head coach knew and the wrestlers knew, but the assitant coach didn't know. No one's believing Jordan magically knew nothing.

Well...that ain't true. Mr. Jordan is trying to save his ass, but he don't know that it has been cut off, along with his integrity, and hopefully soon, his career in Congress.. I believe that Jordan thinks he can get away with the lie, just like many other Republicans.....

............ But this one at this time will not work........This one is too big and too many people knew. The claim that he did not know kind smells like huge pile of fresh cow sh*t. Jordan hasn't figured it out yet.
But he will. So many other politicians lied and lied again.
