Evidence was ignored in Osu doctor abuse
COLUMBUS, Ohio — The State Medical Board of Ohio ignored credible evidence in 1996 that former Ohio State team doctor Richard Strauss had been sexually abusing male students through genital exams for years and missed a chance to stop him, Gov. Mike Dewine and a review panel announced.
More than 300 accusers allege sexual abuse spanning 1979 to 1997. Officials learned of concerns about Strauss as early as 1979. Strauss killed himself in 2005.
