Rep. Jim Jordan 'turned a blind eye' to sex abuse allegations, says former OSU wrestler amid House speaker battle_我的网站

A |     A former Ohio State University student-athlete is speaking out against Rep. Jim Jordan's bid for House speaker, saying Jordan "turned a blind eye" to allegations of abuse against a team doctor during his time as assistant coach for the university's wrestling team.Rocky Ratliff is now an attorney who also represents several other former OSU wrestlers in an ongoing lawsuit against the university."I think the wrestlers that I represent, not one of us, would back him for such a leadership position," Ratliff told ABC News Live Prime anchor Linsey Davis.He continued, "He's abandoned us for his own selfish reasons when he could have helped us. He's chosen not to. So that is not the good makings of any type of leadership or any type of leader that he would have put up with at Ohio State. It's just not. None of us wrestlers believe he should get that position."A spokesperson for Jordan, R-Ohio, told ABC News, "Chairman Jordan never saw or heard of any abuse, and if he had, he would have dealt with it."The allegations of abuse were against Dr. Richard Strauss, an Ohio State team doctor and sports medicine researcher. Strauss is accused of sexually abusing at least 177 men over an 18-year period from 1979 to 1997 -- nearly his entire time at Ohio State, according to an independent report released in 2019.Investigators determined that university officials ignored nearly two decades of accusations of sexual abuse against Strauss, who killed himself in 2006 at age 67, seven years after retiring from the university.The accusations of abuse involved athletes from at least 16 sports including wrestling, hockey and swimming, and included Strauss' work at the student health center and an off-campus clinic that he founded late in his tenure, according to the report.The university removed Strauss as a school physician in 1996 after a flurry of student complaints and reported his actions to the State Medical Board of Ohio. However, the school allowed Strauss to retain his tenured faculty position while he operated an off-campus clinic, where the report says he continued to abuse students.Ohio State University has since admitted that it failed to protect students from Strauss, paying out $60 million in settlements to some 296 victims.Jordan, who was an assistant coach on the team from 1986 to 1994, came under fire in 2018 when several former OSU wrestlers took their allegations against Strauss to the media and claimed Jordan was aware of Strauss' inappropriate behavior and failed to report it. The university then announced it was opening an investigation into the allegations against Strauss.Jordan also denied knowing about the abuse when the allegations first came out in 2018.Jordan is now facing renewed scrutiny amid the ongoing battle for House speaker. After again failing to receive enough GOP support, the congressman and chair of the House Judiciary Committee was defeated a second time after a vote on Wednesday afternoon."We believe very strongly, especially all the wrestlers that were there at the time, that Jim Jordan knew what was going on," Ratliff said on Wednesday.Ratliff continued, "Jordan should come forward and tell the truth about what happened. At least meet with the guys. He's failed to do that -- to hear our side, he's failed. You know, even if you believe what Jim Jordan says, he has never once reached out to any wrestler to say, 'Hey, I missed it. I'm sorry. How are you feeling?'"ABC News' Eric Ortega, Imtiyaz Delawala, Lindsey Griswold, and Andrea Amiel contributed to this report.。    文明交通          倡议书          第12个全国交通安全日          广大交通参与者们：          大家好！          今年12月2日是第12个122“全国交通安全日”，主题是“文明交通 你我同行”！12年来，交通安全启智铸魂、砥砺前行，从最基本的“遵守交通信号”“摒弃交通陋习”，到“抵制七类违法”“拒绝危险驾驶”，再到“社会协同治理”“尊法守规明礼”“细节关乎生命”，再到“守规则除隐患”“知危险会避险”“守法规知礼让”“文明守法，平安回家”，聚焦文明安全，紧跟社会热点，交通安全日主题的发展是十二年公安交管发展的缩影，代表着国民交通安全意识的启蒙、塑造、丰富，“安全文明出行”已成为全社会的共识，日益深入人心，也是全体交警的心声和期盼！在此，邻水公安交警向您发出文明交通倡议书：          一、遵守交通规则，安全文明出行          严格遵守交通法规，做到机动车礼让斑马线，按序排队通行，车辆有序按位停放、文明使用车灯、喇叭，行人和非机动车各行其道、行人和非机动车过街遵守交通信号。         二、摒弃交通陋习，安全文明出行          坚决摒弃机动车随意变更车道、非紧急情况占用高速公路应急车道、开车接打电话或抽烟、驾乘人员不系安全带、车窗抛物、不礼让行人、违法停车及堵塞消防通道、电动车在机动车道行驶及随意穿插骑行、摩托车和电动车驾乘人员不佩戴安全头盔、行人过街不走人行横道或翻越隔离设施、乱穿马路等交通陋习。         三、弘扬法治精神，安全文明出行          积极学习交通安全法律法规，掌握交通安全知识，提高交通安全意识和文明交通习惯，出行时自觉遵守交通法规，服从交警和交通安全劝导员的指挥引导。积极参与、配合文明交通监督和疏导活动，宣传文明交通知识，纠正不文明交通行为，提醒家人和亲友树立文明交通意识，关爱自己和他人生命，做文明交通的倡导者。         四、树立风险意识，安全文明出行          坚决抵制无牌无证驾驶、酒后驾驶、超速行驶、疲劳驾驶、闯红灯、强行超车会车、超员、超载等危险驾驶行为。         五、尊重生命规则，安全文明出行          拒绝乘坐农用车、拖拉机等无资质车辆及超员、客货混装车辆、非法营运客车、私揽客源“黑”客车或无运营资质车辆。选择正规客运场站乘坐具有合法运营资质的车辆，发现非法营运车辆运营时，积极监督举报。         交通安全无小事！交通安全与群众出行息息相关，营造遵章守法、相互礼让的和谐社会风尚，创造安全畅通、文明有序的交通环境是大家共同的责任，让我们共同行动，以“小我”带动“大家”，以“个人”带动“人人”，从我做起，从现在做起，为交通安全出行系好“安全带”，筑牢交通安全防线，携手共创安全、畅通、有序的道路交通环境。                   邻水县公安局交通警察大队          2023年11月24日。
