A lawsuit filed this week by former skater Adam Schmidt, formerly Baadani, claims he was sexually abused by Olympic coach Richard Callaghan after U.S. Figure Skating ignored sexual misconduct complaints against him, according to an ABC News report.

Callaghan, U.S. Figure Skating and Onyx Ice Arena were all named in the complaint, which alleges that Schmidt suffered “numerous sexual assaults” from 1991 to 2001 while training under Callaghan as a teenager in Michigan. A specific incident is cited from the 2001 Masters of Figure Skating competition in California.

It wasn’t the first red flag for Callaghan, who was at the center of a grievance that was filed with the federation in 1999 from Craig Maurizi, a former skater turned Olympic coach, citing sexual abuse from around 1999 to 2001.

The grievance included several others who had allegedly been abused or witnessed Callaghan’s sexual misconduct.

Between Callaghan’s repeated denial and the federation’s bylaws requiring alleged misconduct to be reported within 60 days, the grievance was dismissed without a hearing. The Professional Skaters Association declared no violation of its ethics standards, but the USFSA did create a formal policy on sexual harassment.

Schmidt’s complaint cites that the decision to allow Callaghan to remain a part of U.S. Figure Skating resulted in extreme trauma-related damages, including “anxiety, depression, fear, grief and stress.”

“[U.S. Figure Skating], knowing full well of the allegations of sexual misconduct, failed to investigate, failed to warn [Schmidt] of these prior bad acts, and did nothing to inhibit [Callaghan’s] access to minor children under his tutelage or those who were present at the events he attended,” the lawsuit says. “Despite this litany of sexual abuse and misconduct complaints made against [Callaghan], [Callaghan] remained in good-standing with [U.S. Figure Skating] until 2018.”

Callaghan was involved with U.S. Figure Skating from 1972 until 2018, when he was temporarily suspended after Maurizi refiled his grievance against him with the U.S. Olympic Committee’s sexual misconduct branch, the U.S. Center for SafeSport.

Eighteen months have passed and the investigation is still ongoing.

“U.S. Figure Skating supports all victims of sexual abuse and encourages those who have been abused or suspect abuse to report it to local law enforcement, the U.S. Center for SafeSport and U.S. Figure Skating,” U.S. Figuring Skating’s statement said. “U.S. Figure Skating has no record of receiving a report regarding the allegations brought forth to you by Mr. Schmidt. No allegations against Mr. Callaghan were reported prior to 1999. U.S. Figure Skating records reflect that Mr. Maurizi remains the only person to have reported allegations against Richard Callaghan to U.S. Figure Skating.”
