Harvard Diving Coach Accused Of Sexual Misconduct

Harvard University's diving coach, Chris Heaton, has been accused of soliciting nude photos from female athletes and sending them explicit images of himself while working at Ripfest Diving camp in Indiana in 2015. These allegations were part of a class-action lawsuit filed against USA Diving and Ripfest, the sport's governing body, in Indianapolis federal court. Harvard placed Heaton on leave pending a university review after learning of the accusations. The lawsuit alleges that Ripfest officials ignored complaints about Heaton's behavior at the time.
