American coach gets 90-year sentence for filming underage athletes
A former American gymnastics coach has been sentenced to 90 years in prison for crimes of sexual exploitation and secretly filming underage female athletes while they were changing clothes and using the bathroom in Mississippi. Judge Christy Johnson issued a sentence of 30 years for each of the three charges related to producing child pornography, which could amount to a life sentence. The coach, who used hidden cameras, admitted to abusing his position to harm the trainees. The gymnastics authorities had previously received warnings about his behavior but did not take sufficient steps to protect the athletes from abuse.
