Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost recently filed a motion on behalf of Ohio State University asking to drop 77 cases involving the late Dr. Richard Strauss sexually abusing Ohio State student-athletes.

This week the Ohio Senate approved a measure prompted by the case of Richard Strauss, an Ohio State University team doctor who sexually assaulted hundreds of students under the guise of medical care. The legislation’s Senate passage comes five years after Strauss’s behavior — and the lack of institutional action to stop it — came to light publicly. It still needs to pass the Ohio House.
