Six former Ohio State University wrestlers have gone on record to say that Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan was aware of the sexual abuse they and other OSU athletes were enduring when he was an assistant wrestling coach in the 1980s and 1990s.
Jordan has maintained that he had absolutely no knowledge that OSU doctor Richard Strauss had been sexually abusing wrestlers and other male athletes for decades, but these six former college wrestlers say Jordan is lying. In interviews with CNN, Tito Vazquez, Dan Ritchie, Mike Flusche, Dunyasha Yetts, Shawn Dailey, and Mike Glane all came forward to say that they were in the room with Jordan and others when Jordan was told of incidents of sexual abuse by Strauss.
