USOPC Fires Biathlon Coach Colliander, Director Carey After Abuse Allegations
The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee has dismissed coach Gary Colliander and director Eileen Carey following allegations of sexual abuse involving biathlete Grace Boutot. The accusations date back to when Boutot was 15, with claims that Colliander groomed and abused her, leading to her suicide attempts. Both officials were let go after an internal review, with Colliander having been placed on administrative leave in December after the allegations surfaced. The U.S. Center for SafeSport has initiated an investigation into Colliander's conduct, while he maintains his innocence and is cooperating with the inquiry. Carey, who was vice president at the Maine Winter Sports Center during the abuse, was also involved in discussions about the allegations with Boutot's family. The case highlights ongoing concerns about safeguarding athletes within Olympic sports.
