What the sister said does not support your opinion that Coughlin killed himself because people thought he was another Larry Nassar. It does support an opinion that he killed himself because he saw his livelihood and life being put on hold for an indefinite amount of time. Because that's exactly what she said: that he can't pursue his profession.
Not sure any more if this came from this thread or the other one:
I will speak as one of these people. When my children were young, I was very careful not to leave them in the care of a single adult as much as possible. This included even my relatives. They were watched in professional day care situations or by a couple. In addition, if I signed them up for something where I got a bad vibe from even one of the adults, I would remove them from that situation.
There is one case where I signed my daughter up for a week of soccer camp. When I dropped her off on Monday, the founder of the camp (someone relatively famous in soccer/football) gave me that kind of vibe. I didn't like the way he looked at my daughter and I didn't like the tone in his voice when he told me she was beautiful. I let her finish out the week since there were other adults there and the kids never went off somewhere with them but stayed in an open field. But I certainly never signed her up for that camp again.
I would be very careful about sending my kids to a competition without me. I would want there to be multiple adults around at all times and not to hear that one adult took my one kid anywhere private. However, most of the time that kids are going to internationals, they are teenagers and by the time my kids were teenagers, I had a good idea of their judgement and how vulnerable they were to things like grooming. So I did let them go on trips with other families. But I definitely kept an eye on the relationship and would ask questions when they got home to make sure they weren't being groomed and weren't spending a long time in private situations with a single adult.
