USA Hockey failed again


Recommended Posts

I'm starting to wonder if USA Hockey has taken management classes from the catholic church? A player abuses a billet child, and you remove him from the home and that's all? They say they spoke to both sets of parents, but no accusations were made? Well then what led to speaking to both sets of parents??

Yet, you and I need a background check and safes port training to work the penalty box in public?

This is the kind of thing victims have complained about for a long time. Disbelief. Slaps on wrist. It's not just the Catholic Church or USA hockey. It's pervasive throughout our society.

Blackmailing a child for sex, even if the perpetrator was a minor at the time, is incredibly repulsive, aberrant behavior that is not going to be a one off. How many others were hurt by this silence?

I hope our culture is changing to protect sexual assault victims.
