I'd like to know the criteria for banning. Nassar had multiple criminal charges as do most (all?) of the others that I am aware of. This is odd to me because there is none of that per reports -- just a 20-yr old accusation? What was proven? How?
From the article: “An individual is placed on the list based on a complaint and following an investigation and hearing process. Each accused member has the right and opportunity to participate in the investigation and hearing process." From this, I would infer that they had enough information to verify the accusation.
What happens when a gym owner (not just a coach) gets banned mid-season? Do all of those kids lose the meet fees that they paid for competitions they've surely already been registered for? The people on the PI list can't have anything to do with member clubs, so what happens to IGI and its athlete members, if the owner is PI? Can the coaches still take the kids? So many questions.
He did not admit to anything. The article initially posted indicates he denies the claim. I would assume his goal was to protect the gym and the current families.Could the difference be a confession sped things up?
Other articles have said the email "addressed his limited involvement with the club over the last several months". Which likely means the investigation has been going on for that long.I hesitate to post, because I hate to start rumors (and I suspect there are probably IGI families on this board)..... However, I heard second hand (a friend of a friend's daughter goes to IGI), that an email was received last week indicating that T.G. was leaving or retiring or something along those lines, and that business partners would be taking over management of the gym. There were apparently no details provided, and it sounds like some wondered if there were health issues given the sudden departure (the reason, of course, is obvious now). The impression I got was that every effort was being made to keep IGI up and running -- business as usual. That might explain why details are being kept confidential, and things seemed to move so swiftly. Again, this is not first hand information -- so please take with a grain of salt (and feel free to correct me if someone knows more).
