Fact. Today I finished working on the case of a man convicted of multiple rapes of his young stepdaughters. Fact at the time of the rapes he was on parole. Fact at the time of the rapes he had two prior convictions for assaults with a deadly weapon, Fact at sentencing he continued to insist...
I’m think you are asking a sincere question so let me give a sincere answer. Yes, young men do stupid things, particularly when under the influence. However stupid “mistakes” can have lifelong consequences for others. Unfortunately, in rape cases people tend to minimize the trauma to the...

I'm sorry, there's a reason that there are lots of warning regarding children taking medication that has not been approved for kids. The same with supplements. These are young, developing bodies and we don't know the long-term effects of medications, particularly if they are not being taken...
I have no problem with Brennan's question, she's a journalist, it's her job. If the USFSA didn't expect that the journalist who has been reporting on the story would question one of that coach's most successful skaters, both they and she are fools.
As to the mandatory reporter issue, I'm also...
