I hate to break it to you, but thereโ€™s large amounts of historical evidence showing that the sexual assault of minor la at the Olympic isnโ€™t exactly uncommon.

Would it disrespect his country? Maybe a little. But really it would bring disrespect in the national Olympic committee, which is generally separate from government so as such the country as a whole probably gets a pass

Sex trafficking spikes to insane numbers when the Olympics come to a city, too. Itโ€™s gross top to bottom.

That's surely just because of vast amounts of travel happening rather than anything Olympic specific?

Precisely right. Likewise the Super Bowl is the super bowl of sex trafficking
