Crazy Ted posted:Aside from that, not much is reported about mistreatment in youth sports academies even though it is a rapidly increasing problem. Here in the United States, recent years have seen a rise in "prep schools" that take in foreign students under the guise of helping them to receive D1 college scholarships, only for the students to be forced to live in cramped, unsafe conditions on forged papers while receiving almost nothing in the way of an education. Traveling sports are covering younger and younger age groups, to the point where parents are encouraged to have seven-or-eight-year-old kids specialize in one sport in order to try out for a traveling youth sports team. Scam football academies in Africa, and sometimes in Europe, "offer" children the chance to impress a big European team, only for many to end up destitute and helpless. You should read Passan's book if you haven't, it goes way into detail about this happening in baseball and how it's ruining the lives for parents and careers of teenagers. I'm only bringing this up because I can't process the MSU thing and need to think about something slightly less depressing

DJExile posted:"The affidavit also says that investigators found nude photos and pornographic videos on Strampel’s work computer, as well as a video of Nassar giving 'treatment' to a young patient." Oh and it was still going on after they arrested Nassar quote:The dean held power and was willing to wield it. He routinely glared at women sexually, made them spin around for him and suggested he send them nude photos or engage in sexual acts in exchange for preferential treatment from him, according to prosecutors. He reminded them of his might and their vulnerability – young students piling on debt who could fail to graduate and thus have no doctor’s salary to eventually pay off their loans. Just shut down the whole school, distribute its assets to all directional Michigans.

The equivalent would be a congressional investigation, I think? This definitely deserves a congressional investigation.
