[TW] Sexual Abuse & Misconduct in Figure Skating


Recommended Posts

I had been reading lately about him re:the SafeSport investigation, sad that this happened. Condolences to his family and everyone who loved him, everyone who cherished his skating and his life.

 

I hope investigation will go on regardless though, all parts deserve it.

GUYS I KNOW THIS IS OT, PLEASE TELL ME IF I HAVE TO DELETE IT.

 

TSL's twitter and YT have been deleted. Some said it's because of the Coughlin issue. He apparently received death threats. 

 

I know we don't like them, but this is just not right. D*ve was very vocal about the issue when many outlets wanted to sweep it all under the rug. 

 

Edit: He indeed received death threats accdg to the the other guy named J*nathan.

That's unfortunate. No one should be getting death threats. Gotta give credit where credit's due. I think I was right for Dave to report there's a safesport investigation and I saw the most recent video on this, it was fine.

Spoiler

Being that petty person my initial reaction was "heck yeah they bloody deserved that!", but then I felt I should concur with the view that even that sort of banning is not quite right, especially if the sole reason was the SafeSport expose video which I am skeptical about, tbh — there are many other YT channels routinely posting video with controversial topics (think of news YT channels, political discussion channels, etc.), they have been doing that for a long time and yet they are still around (most of them anyway). I lean more on the possibility that their channel got banned due to multiple reports piling over a certain period of time instead of just this one-off controversial video.

 

tl;dr: might not be the right thing to happen to them given the circumstances but I am definitely not feeling sorry for those two poor sods.

I don't think they were banned. Looks like tsl themselves took all the recent videos down.

...really? ...the recent videos? (Is the SafeSport topic is contained within several videos?)

 

Okay, now I understand better with the view that say it is too much to have that happened to them — especially the threat part. They might be annoying but even they don't deserve that kind of treatment...

Apparently, they weren't banned. It was D*ve himself who deleted/deactivated due to the threats.
