Several former OSU wrestlers are accusing Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) of ignoring accusations of sexual improprieties supposedly committed by the team physician. The doctor, now deceased, is alleged to have been an aggressive gay who came on to team members who were not receptive.
They allege assistant coach Jordan knew and did nothing, he says he did not know. There may have been wisecracks about the doctor's behavior which he believed no one took seriously. All this happened some 20+ years ago.
My question, why has no one said anything until now? When several years ago the assistant coach at Penn State got nailed for sexual misbehavior, it became clear there was an audience for such allegations.
How come it waited until Rep. Jordan is on the short list of those considered to succeed Paul Ryan as Speaker? The timing is, to say the least, highly suspicious, as is the accusers being represented by the same law firm which procured the Trump dossier for the Clinton campaign.
I say we don't know the truth and may never know, since what is being alleged is that Jordan knew, and proving he did won't be easy. Somebody needs to determine whether the accusers are being paid to speak up, and by whom.
