Olympian Ashley Wagner, a renowned figure skater, has come forward with her story of being sexually assaulted at a party when she was 17. She revealed these details in a first-person account for USA Today, naming John Coughlin, another skater who died by suicide while under investigation for sexual misconduct. Wagner decided to speak out to encourage others to come forward and to advocate for a safer environment in the sport. She was motivated by seeing young skaters like 13-year-old Elissa Lu entering a flawed system and felt a responsibility to push for change.
