Disclaimer: I did not see a diary on this (and I totally suck at diaries). So, until someone posts something better…
Did anyone see the testimony from Adam DiSabato (former OSU wrestler and coach) on Lawrence O’Donnell tonight? I haven’t been able to link to the video, but the WAPO back story is here:
www.washingtonpost.com/…
From the article:
“Adam DiSabato — the brother of Mike DiSabato, the whistleblower who exposed the abuse by Richard Strauss — testified Wednesday during a public hearing in the state legislature that when the story came out in July 2018, he received a phone call from a tearful Jordan.
“Jim Jordan called me crying, crying, groveling, on the Fourth of July, begging me to go against my brother, begging me, crying for half an hour,” Adam DiSabato said, according to video of his testimony. “That’s the kind of coverups going on here.”
Later in his testimony:
That was DiSabato’s allegation during the legislative hearing on a bill that would allow victims to sue the school in the event of sexual abuse by a university-employed doctor.
“He’s throwing us under the bus, all of us,” DiSabato said. “He’s a coward. He’s not a leader; he’s a coward.”
He also accused Jordan of calling and pressuring other wrestlers to “flip their stories.”
The live testimony is devastating for little jimmy jack-off. It may well end his short tenure as intelligence committee ranking s-hole lapper, if not his career.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving Trumpian!
I hope I’m not the only one here cynical enough to wonder if little jimmy was being paid off by the sicko perv team doctor to allow him access to the showers? It would be irresponsible not to speculate so talk amongst yourselves...
UPDATED: So CNN has the story now at:

The actual testimony starts about 0:56 in.
