Retired United States Olympic figure skater Ashley Wagner said Thursday that late American figure skater John Coughlin sexually assaulted her in June 2008 when she was 17 years old.
In an interview with Christine Brennan of USA Today, Wagner said Coughlin climbed into her bed following a team party in Colorado Springs, Colorado, before kissing and groping her without her consent. Coughlin was 22 years old at the time.
Coughlin took his own life in January at the age of 33 amid three sexual misconduct allegations against him.
