Sexual misconduct allegations against Shaun White resurface in PyeongChang

Shaun White’s third run during Tuesday’s men’s halfpipe finals was historic.

Through the eyes of snowboarding and Winter Games novices and pros alike, White achieved the impossible with a 97.75 score and earned his third goal medal at the 2018 Olympic Games in PyeongChang.

Fans in the United States and all over the world saw White break down in tears, struck by his accomplishment and near flawless performance.

While nothing should take away from this moment, but the full picture of White needs to be addressed in light of the #MeToo movement.

The full story regarding a sexual misconduct lawsuit against White can be read on myAJC.com.
