Report: State Medical Board Had Evidence of Sexual Abuse by OSU Doctor Richard Strauss

A working group convened by Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has determined that the Ohio Medical Board had significant evidence as early as 1996 that Ohio State University athletic doctor Richard Strauss was sexually abusing patients, DeWine announced today.

The governor created the working group in May after an independent investigation found that during his tenure at OSU, Strauss likely abused as many as 177 people beginning as early as 1979.

Records from the state's medical board were redacted in a report issued by that independent investigation, but because DeWine's working group is a governmental entity, it was able to view those documents.

The records showed that investigators knew Strauss had been performing inappropriate examinations on male students, but more or less ignored that evidence.

Of course there is no way Gym saw anything! He was only there 7 years as Assistant Coach! Not enough time to see anything, according to Gym!

Then he is too incompetent, ignorant and dense to be a representative of the people.

I just hope deWine has the guts to carry this through to the truth, and they punish the appropriate offenders who kept silent about this horrendous abuse.

With the huge ECOT scandal that cost tax payers 77 million until he decided to run for Governor.

The mass murder is Southeastern Ohio? Stayed in front of the cameras until they turned them off vowing to solve the murder. Never heard of again, except for locals arresting a family.

After being booed off the stage in Dayton he announced a plan for gun control that will never get through the gerrymandered Republican Legislature.
