A cheerleading gym in Tennessee faces sex abuse allegations in a case that escalates the accusations against some of the sport's top institutions. Lawyers brought a similar complaint this month against coaches at Rockstar Cheer in South Carolina.

Premier said it heard Sept. 18 from one athlete that another athlete had a “physical relationship” with the coach. After reporting that allegation to local law enforcement and USASF, Premier said, it did not contact the alleged victim’s family to avoid any accusations of interfering with an investigation.

Premier Athletics received reports in late May or June, but the coach continued to access the gym as recently as this month, according to the boys in the lawsuit.Even after USASF added the coach to its ineligible list, the boys allege, he continued to participate in private lessons with minors on the gym’s premises. In a July message, the coach told one of the plaintiffs that the gym manager told him he would not be fired, according to the boys in the lawsuit.

The boys say in their lawsuit that USASF and Varsity endangered athletes by failing to report the misconduct to local law enforcement.At a news conference Tuesday, the plaintiffs’ lawyers said that “insular” systems within the cheer industry make it difficult for athletes to report misconduct. These institutions, the lawyers said, have set up an intentionally convoluted process. Lawyers noted that local gyms must become USASF members to participate in Varsity competitions.

I know we all probably might have heard about Bitcoin but don't know how it works, I tried it in a week ago by a man who recommended me to Samantha_M078 on Twitter he guides me through and i made a return of $10500 after a week of trading, connect with her

In each case I have seen where child abuse is claimed, the parents are absent. Parental involvement is a must. One cannot drop off their kids & pursue another activity. Parents have to be involved in the recreational activities of their kids.

I’m guessing Gym Jordan will be reaching out to the victims in short order.

A gym sexually abused someone?

They fired the coach on the basis of an unsubstantiated accusation. Grounds for a lawsuit I think. Defamation against the accusers, unfair treatment against the employer.
