Two former Ohio State University wrestlers accusing Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan of ignoring sexual misconduct by a university physician more than two decades ago have a history of failed business dealings, lawsuits, harassment allegations, and in the case of one accuser, an 18 month prison sentence for fraud.
NBC News published an article on Tuesday, quoting DiSabato and Dunyasha Yetts, another former OSU wrestler, claiming that when Jordan worked as assistant wrestling coach at OSU, he ignored sexual abuse carried out by a university physician named Richard Strauss.
DiSabato called Jordan a "Coward."
The initial reports based on DiSabato and Yetts' claims regarding Jordan ignores a large body of evidence that raises questions about the two former wrestlers' motives.
Jordan is also receiving support from Russ Hellickson, who was OSU's head wrestling coach when Jordan served as an assistant.
Hellickson said in a statement issued through Jordan's congressional office that neither he nor Jordan ignored sexual abuse of OSU wrestlers.
"At no time while Jim Jordan was a coach with me at Ohio State did either of us ignore abuse of our wrestlers. That is not the kind of man Jim is, and it is not the kind of coach that I was," said Hellickson, who called Jordan "The most honorable man I have ever known."
