that's crazy, i just found the news article. it says the charges were from 10 years ago and he was acquitted on the charges. we could probably start a whole new thread on instances such as this - but if someone was found to be falsely accused of something like that do you still not hire them? if so, then does that count as descrimination against someone?
personally i think it's horribly scary for a male to work with so many female athletes. for someone who is innocent all it takes is one person to accuse you of something and people start second guessing your intentions and your character. i'm not saying this was the case with this coach as I have no information or don't know him. another question we could all ask ourselves (although i hope we never need to) is if you found that one of your cp's coaches were acquitted on charges such as these from 10 years ago do you believe that the acquittal was right and this person was falsely accused or do you run the other way?
