Seriously though, it's no surprise. The only surprise is that it's only come up now. I

would think that sexual predators or other kinds of abusers exist in just about every similar organisation where people are in that level of authority and respect. We know about the Church, we know about the Scouts, we know about care homes, we know about rugby, and now we know about football and (one case in) American Football.

Given the numbers and the propensity of abusers to manipulate themselves into positions of control over children (or others) in a vulnerable position, it was only a matter of time and I am sure the tip of the iceberg.
