The organization that oversees the Olympic movement in this country failed to protect young athletes from the threat of sexual misconduct in elite sports, according to a new report that offers a damning assessment of two of the U.S. Olympic Committee’s top executives who were in charge at the time the Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal unfolded.
An investigation commissioned by the USOC provides a detailed look at the inaction of USOC CEO Scott Blackmun and USOC chief of sport performance Alan Ashley in the roughly yearlong period after they were informed of the allegations against Nassar.
