USOC chief executive welcomes findings of Energy and Commerce Committee report into sexual abuse of athletes
USOC chief executive welcomes findings of Energy and Commerce Committee report into sexual abuse of athletesSarah Hirshland, chief executive of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), has responded to the House Energy and Commerce Committee report into the efforts to protect athletes from sexual abuse that was released in Washington D.C. The Energy and Commerce Committee, chaired by Greg Walden, summarised its findings after conducting a year-long investigation into sexual abuse with the USOC and its 48 national governing bodies (NGBs). Former USA Gymnastics team doctor Larry Nassar is now serving up to 175 years in prison having been found guilty of sexually abusing dozens of American gymnasts. An independent report published earlier this month by law firm Ropes & Gray claimed the USOC and USA Gymnastics had facilitated Nassar’s abuse of hundreds of athletes and had failed to act when the allegations against the disgraced doctor emerged.
