Is this normal? "All Star Aquatics did not respond to a request for comment"

I would think they want to put out something to distance themselves.

No kidding. What I’m saying is typically you wait to have more facts and press releases based on the hearings. Unless you won’t report reporting from the daily mail.


Have you read the case reports? Tons of facts there, very little of which has been reported by the media (or, has been reported inaccurately)


And the media could use the details of the case reports by saying “alleged”

(1) leave a child with another man (defendant) when someone EXPLICITLY told the mom and dad that this man is a pedophile abuser — did they not even ask their own children at that point??? — and how was this behavior “remaining vigilant”???;

(2) take a nap while leaving their child in a suspicious man’s custody, and then **bring gin** up (on a Saturday afternoon) to drink with defendant;

(3) allow him to return to a bedroom alone with the young girl even after coming back to his apartment from napping;

(4) let their daughter sit in another man’s lap!!!!;

(5) literally walk in on the child sitting on the man’s head and just WALK AWAY!!! WTF!!!!

This whole thing sounds like some type of orgy or throuple or affair while the kids are getting sexually abused. I hope they are doing fitness tests for the parents, who exercised remarkable negligence as well.

This mama heart is fully broken for these babies, and I can’t reconcile any of the decisions the parents made.


The victims (little children!!!) have a public YouTube account. What the hell is wrong with the parents? All of this is insane. Maybe there is a lot more going on here than reported in the charging documents. Those poor babies. I hope there is a GAL appointed.

Some – not all. Typically when it’s a teacher, coach, etc. Trust that this is going to be hitting the media.

But there are facts that could be reported…. An arrest was made and perp is being held. I think the facts would have been easy enough to validate with court records.


You seem a little too close to the story. When the other Swim dad from Arlington got arrested for child porn it wasn’t in the news either. Many of us couldn’t believe it because our kids played sports with his kids over the years, but then I realized, unfortunately there’s hundreds of these cases every day. While this one may be more high profile bc of his work, typically you let the initial hearings occur to get more facts before dropping a story.
