Former U.S. Gymnastics Coach Found Dead On Day Of Arraignment | NBC Nightly News
Jim Jordan should be in jail wtf!
💯!!
??
@Salesad Mieze Men’s wrestling in I believe Ohio. College level. Coach there. Jordan has never come clean about what he knows.
Sandusky
doctors used to be a respected profession.
How selfish of him. Disgusting!
Sicko
*Coward*
RIP
Saving some tax payers some money..bye bye
Coward
Gym Jordan should be next
what about Jim Jordan?
You must be a Democrat. What does Jim Jordan have to do with gymnastics?
@Salesad Mieze I am not feeding your ignorant brain. Look it up.
@Cybr Friends Thank you. 👍
He gave himself the death sentence
*_COWARD!_*
another epstein, i assume he just followed that mentor.
He must’ve been in knot tying class with Epstein
COWARD!
Wake up Democrat’s…. hang yourselves before you wreck yourselves
May he be an inspiration to others like him.
For all the people who are leaving comments about how great this is… please remember that John’s death probably means that his victims will robbed of the opportunity to confront him and to tell their stories in court.
He won’t ever be found legally guilty and, for some, that may mean living their lives feeling live justice wasn’t served – that they don’t have closure. It also leaves the gate open for the inevitable ‘Geddert Supporters’ who will crawl out of their holes and shout down survivors. Don’t think that won’t happen because it happened with Nassar even though he got banged up for a few lifetimes.
John Geddert has been described by some as ‘The Devil’ so don’t forget that. He held many secrets about what went on in the USAG world and now there is zero chance of him even giving up any helpful information.
His suicide may also have a very negative impact on his victims. Those who are still processing may now feel weird about coming forward. Those who have spoken may feel experience feelings of guilt. NOT THAT THEY SHOULD but they may. The relationship between victims and their abusers is complex so please remember that many victims may still hold a place in their heart for this man and could well mourn his death.
Please remember his victims and his children before you comment. Please be respectful and remember that there’s nothing to celebrate here and that many organizations and individuals have still not answered to the court regarding this matter. Many never will.
Good riddance. You can still charge even after death.
dime for a dozen
Coward.
The cowardly way to be a man. Obviously guilty! Sorry for the victims.
False accusations drove him to suicide.
As a sexual abuse victim I stand with these young ladies and pray they find peace and just know that justice is served. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Are you going to cover Andrew Cuomo’s sexual assault allegations or do you only do that to Republicans?
CARE FACTOR 0% FOR PEDEFILES .
Nassar got 175 years
jim nasty
Now go after gym Jordan.
He KNEW.
Why did it take so long? What kind of justice is this?
Just imagine what happened to Russian, Chinese, and other countries little gymnastic girls. I wonder if any of those girls will ever come forward?
Horrid..they have less say and no support.
🙄🙄🙄
@Jen How do you know that for sure?
Let me guess… Republican?
My first thought returned to the horrors of Penn State.
What was he hiding. Well what would you think????
Why wasn’t he held without bail?
We can’t trust coaches anymore! Or Boy Scout leaders! What is happening?
In the old days it was called flirting. It’s NO big deal! Get over it
Pays to clad clean underwear.
WELL WE KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!! Guilty
Not surprised a pervert would take the cowards way out…cause if he didnt do it the inmates would have.
Why was he not detailed without bail ????
Cowards
POS! Saves taxpayers a lot of money!
Keep cleaning house, America!
What about Jim Jordan? Plenty of evidence at the University.
Too bad he didn’t at least leave behind info to help other kids.
When is Jim Jordan time. He talks loudly so no one pays attention to what he’s accused of. Taking the spot light off of him. Keep a eye on him and keep him in the spot light
Another Epstein suicide.
👍another dirtbag down 👍
He also new a lot of high ranking people ??? big names
“Sure” he took his life better yet murdered to protect some powerful people
well i saw that coming.
Good one less person wasting court time and money. Hope his estate is sued.
Larsen belongs in prison.
Wow. I rewound just to get a second look at the fabulous Lady Brienne security guard. Jaw dropped, properly in awe, fab-you-luss!!
Sooo…
…why didn’t Q know anything about this? 😀😁😂🤣
GOP. Jordan has been crooked for years. It comes down to one thing, investigate who you vote for. Don’t just vote every 4 years for President. Vote local and once you vote, stay involved in politics.
Bidens buddy
Families don’t get their closure. At least mine is knowing he probably was crying like a baby when he took his life.
All the victims should have his assets frozen until the courts sort out this tragic situation.
Yep that’s what cowards do.
Sounds like another epstien situation………..what ever happened with that…….it sure got quiet really quick
Yep. Not surprised.
Attention girls, in the old days it was called flirting. It’s NO big deal! Get over it
HE GOT OFF EASY !!!!!
Olympic coaches and Catholic Priests…smh?! Cho-Mo’s all around!!
Everyone gets what they deserve. 🌃
oooh…those girls didn’t deserve that treatment.
They ain’t gymnasts, so who made them coaches!?
All pedophiles must be put to death effective immediately
EXPEDITIOUSLY
Constantly
Meticulously
Understood!?
Comprende !?
It’s bigger than covid with longer lasting effects
Disgusting western lie we are forced to live in
John was an excellent coach. We will miss him at the next Olympics.
Nice 👌
Accused of “lying”?? If that was such a crime then Trump should get the death penalty.
Well, I declare, he didn’t know this would follow him? Cognitive dissonance for real.
Good saves money on a trial and the anguish of the girls having to be in court
I just saved $20 on my car insurance.
These are the people you know about , how many more out there
Still no justice…
🎶Fa la la la….
At least we know the answer and also don’t have to waste tax money on imprisonment. However it is also disgusting because there will be almost NO CLOSURE because of his suicide.
Georgia lynn jones. boulder co6463399607.
MaLe gymnasTics coaches have aLways been given a pass when iT comes to touching the girLs. I was never fooLed. They need a femaLe coach on each team,& the maLe coaches have2b under a no touch EVER4ANY reason ruLe. Every time they do a rouTine the maLe coaches geT 2 “congraTuLaTe” the girLs wiTh Long bear hugs. How sTupid r? the! parenTs. JFC
Turn this to blue if you ifinate sorry to god
Coward
*GYM JORDAN COME TO MIND ?*
Did he make Hillary mad at some point ?
What a coward
Cant be that difficult to make it look like suicide 😉
How can this be stopped? So we don’t have future victims?
How can this be stopped before these crimes happen? They seem to be growing?
Ninety percent of survivors don’t come forward because of men like this.
It’s time to hunt pedophiles like they hunt children.
I’m sick of 64 years of this
A coward to the end.
the trash took itself out.
Coward
Allegedly
X
Piece of crap
Coward!
The wisest thing that should be on every wise individuals list is to invest in different stream of income that don’t depend on the government to bring money especially now the pandemic is hitting economy pretty hard .
I have heard a lot about crypto trading,,is it really profitable as people say it is ?
@Humble Gint Bitcoin trading option is just like any other business but in this case more sophisticated and advanced
Investment are the stepping stones to success.
Amazing I also just started trading with Mr Blian Reinkensmeyer he is the best broker at what he does with an initial investment of $1400 i made up to $11230 in just a week of trading with him, his strategies are mind blowing
I have come to realize that making profits in cryptocurrency is when you invest with a broker who has vast knowledge and working strategy that yields huge profits like that of Mr Blian Reinkensmeyer
Wow, I don’t know Mr Blian is this Famous,As a first time investor I started trading with Mr Blian Reinkensmeyer with just a thousand bucks. my portfolio is worth much more than now within just weeks of trading with him.
Yay!
Another deplorable Person taking advantage of young People, gone.
Chalk up another for decency
Sexual predation of the young is arguably the worst crime a human can commit.
Another Epstein let me guess he shot himself TWICE in the head
