When I am reminded of how many adults failed these children, I get enraged all over again. I just do not understand.

I hate to say this, but it seems like the "Old Boys Cover Up Network" continues to do destroy lives. We have seen this happen before: Catholic Church scandals, Penn State, numerous other times...It drives me crazy, and I don't understand it at all.

‘Missing’ USA Gymnastics records may have been found in Indianapolis
The documents have been a source of interest since early November 2016, when the Texas Rangers showed up at the Karolyi ranch — which served as USA Gymnastics' national training center. When the Rangers arrived, someone at the ranch immediately called USA Gymnastics officials in Indianapolis to seek guidance.
That guidance was to ask whether the Rangers had a warrant.
They didn't. And they were promptly turned away.
The Rangers were invited to come back hours later — but not until after then-USA Gymnastics CEO Steve Penny had called the ranch and ordered an employee to collect and remove medical documents.
