Senator: U.S. Ski & Snowboard interfering in SafeSport investigation of Peter Foley

The U.S. Ski & Snowboard Association is interfering with an investigation into sexual misconduct complaints against longtime coach Peter Foley, according to a letter from Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa).

The U.S. Center for SafeSport has been investigating Foley, 56, since last month after an Olympian said Foley had “taken naked photos of female athletes for over a decade.” It issued a temporary suspension for allegations of misconduct last week, and U.S. Ski & Snowboard confirmed Monday that he is no longer employed with the federation, though it declined to say whether Foley resigned or was fired.
