Sister Cathy.

Also, please let me know (anyone reading this), if you know anything about possible sex abuse at the CYO (Catholic Youth Organization) Sparks, MD Boys Summer Camp during the 60's. I'm trying to build a case against any potential abusers who worked as "camp counselors" and other jobs during those years. And would appreciate any information!

The second class-action lawsuit filed last week says that Dunyasha Yetts, another former wrestler, directly informed Jim Jordan about the abuse around this time — a claim that Jordan denies.

The victims were afraid to speak up out of fear of punishment
One of the most horrifying “defenses” of Jordan came from his colleague Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX), who said that, “Unlike the Olympians who were minor children at the time they were abused, these former wrestlers were adults at the time they claim they were sexually abused by the Ohio State team doctor.”
