Ohio State: 100-plus students reported doctor’s misconduct
More than 100 former students have provided firsthand accounts of sexual misconduct by the now-dead Ohio State team physician at the center of an ongoing investigation, the university said.
The allegations range from 1979 to 1997, during most of Richard Strauss’ two decades on the faculty. Many of the accusers who have spoken publicly allege Strauss groped them or conducted unnecessary genital exams.
Strauss killed himself in 2005.
