Ex-Ohio State Wrestler Says Rep. Jim Jordan Begged Him to Cover Up Sexual Abuse
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Former Ohio State wrestler Adam Di Sabato accused Republican Ohio
Congressmember Jim Jordan of begging him not to corroborate the
widespread sexual abuse perpetrated by university doctor Richard
Strauss, after Di Sabato's brother Mike exposed the abuse. This is Adam
Di Sabato testifying Wednesday in a public hearing in the Ohio state
Legislature.

Adam Di Sabato: "Jim Jordan called me, crying - crying - groveling, on
the Fourth of July, begging me to go against my brother - begging me,
crying for a half-hour. That's the kind of cover-ups that's going on
there."
