The relationships thing is somewhat relevant to one of the stories told by the former skater Melissa Bulanhagui who spoke up after Ashley's article, about John's best friend (who coaches). Her tweets can be seen here: https://twitter.com/edges_of_glory/status/1157243822335619078/photo/2The setting, as described, was a party where there was lots of alcohol being consumed, so it's not unreasonable to think so, though there is no evidence one way or another on the current record.
But my point was that whether he had or not, based on his larger track record this wasn't a drinking-related issue, so discussions about whether more education needs to be had about drinking at parties, etc. doesn't really relate to the issue at hand, anymore than education about consent in relationships, etc. (beyond, I guess, all the people who think that it wasn't assault because he stopped after she challenged him; those people need reeducation).
