Three former members of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard team are suing their former coach, a national federation and its CEO and the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee<\/a> for sex trafficking, harassment and enabling and covering up multiple acts of sexual assault and misconduct, according to multiple reports.<\/p>\n

Olympians Rosey Fletcher and Callan Chythlook-Sifsof, along with Erin O’Malley, alleged in their lawsuit that Peter Foley, Gale “Tiger” Shaw and the USOPC “conspired and acted in concert with one another to commit unlawful acts<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

The three women say Foley used his position of trust to “coerce sexual acts through force, manipulation, emotional abuse, intimidation and retaliation.”<\/p>\n

Fletcher, a 2006 Bronze medalist, claims Foley sexually assaulted<\/a> her when she was 19 and again at a post-race event at the Olympics. O’Malley said Foley also sexually assaulted her at sanctioned competitions and in an elevator in front of Fletcher, while mentally and verbally abusing her at age 15.<\/p>\n

“Foley began groping Erin and forcibly trying to kiss her \u2014 all without her consent,” the lawsuit said. “For nearly 20 years, coaches and executives at both organizations enabled Foley’s behavior, refused to act and helped cover up Foley’s behavior, allowing him to continue his pattern of abuse.”<\/p>\n

Chythlook-Sifsof says she was raped by a male coach “nearly three times her age from an opposing team” during the 2005 world junior championships in 2005 when she was 16.<\/p>\n

A former federation employee, Lindsey Nikola, said in a separate lawsuit<\/a> Thursday that Foley “sexually harassed and sexually assaulted” her and forced her to take nude photos in hotel rooms at two World Cup ski races.<\/p>\n

“Had the USSS taken the safety of their young athletes and employees seriously, Foley’s behavior could have been prevented,” the lawsuits say.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Foley was fired by the USSS<\/a> in March, shortly after ESPN investigated the crimes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
