It says temporary. Does anyone know if this is restrictions while they are investigating or the result of an investigation? And for how long?

That link is pretty useless. She has been around a gazillion years. What do people think she has done?

Even I who doesn't skate or have a skater child have heard the other parents talk at skating events about the Sappenfield camp.

Oh, genius answer! So very helpful.....and adds so much to the conversation.
I wanted to know what kind of abuse. Did she flog them? Starve them? Keep them in a closet? Sexually abuse them? Shame them?

Come on. You've been on FSU a long time. Even you can't be clueless to all the discussion about Sappenfield the past three years. You are being deliberately obtuse.

I kind of feel like, at the end of a week with anti-vaxxers/anti-maskers everywhere, bad laws being passed in Texas, hurricanes and flooding....."the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice".

bye felicia
That I know of, she allegedly:
-Helped cover up allegations against TJ Nyman and John Coughlin
-Encouraged relationships between legal adult male skaters and much younger underage female skaters
-Herself engaged in inappropriate relationships with much younger male skaters
-Committed some financial fraud or other illegal tax stuff (not 100% sure on this one)
Again, all allegations, but all really bad. I’m not sure what all 12 are, but I would assume those four encompass most of it. I’m also sure we’ll learn more soon about what the specifics are.
Rumor has it that TJ Nyman is also being investigated as part of the same investigation, so I would assume his status will be updated soon.

About time.
Also I cannot believe that someone who is a regular poster on this board can be so obtuse as to question what she has done.

Thanks so much. SO GROSS! What the heck is wrong with people? She is a "public" figure. How in the world did she think she was not going to be "outed"?

Sorry. Never read anything (that stuck in my brain) about her.....well, except she is really fat (which is not a great example to be setting for her skaters.
Good grief.

Allegations are only allegations they are not truth
But let’s say she was running what’s basically a rape camp no one ever calling the cops is so sick! I mean everyone must be really sick mentally
not unique of course
gymnastics had rape camps
Football had rape camps
Catholic Church had rape camps
people see rapes- learn of rapes- the most common thing to do is look away and enable. Human nature
plus victim denial they are being raped too. Most people who are raped don’t even admit to themselves

Because people like you refused to believe she could have done anything wrong.
And if she's "fat" so what?

There's enough "allegations" here for SafeSport to take action. And how dare you suggest that no one ever "called the cops". Talk about victim-blaming.
