2. And they should! The buck stops at the top. They either knew, or should have known.

Those poor girls. I heard one girl on tv say that she reported it early on, and her parents & the trainer people didn't believe her. They brought in other girls...I think to say how the dr hadn't done anything to THEM. Then behind her back, they reported her story to the dr. Then they sent her BACK to the dr.. He walked in and said, "I spoke with your mother...." So the girl apologized, saying it was a misunderstanding. And he cont'd doing what he was doing, and she never tried to report it again.

It's hard to believe that all those people didn't know that the dr was molesting those girls, when some had reported it, over YEARS.
