Golgotha Files Abuse Complaint with FRG

[Sasha]

Depending on the wording gymcastic used as well, it might be that there are two questions here- did Camelia say this and did it happen? Ie are the sources saying Camelia claimed to them she'd done this or that they witnessed it. If anyone's heard it, would be great to get more info.

I heard that they had three different sources, but did these sources hear the information directly from Camelia? Or are they inferring based on circumstantial evidence? I'd like to know more about what the allegations are based on.

Though I agree that the video Denn posted (I'd never seen it before!) looks suspect AF. Even before the run, her body language doesn't look like that of a person preparing to throw a difficult vault.

I agree about the body language, but I think that could also be a question of when the baulk happened (mentally): before she started or closer to the vault.

From another angle, Camelia does not look like a woman whose evil masterplan is all coming together ...



There are so many possible shades to this - like Camelia telling her to focus on beam and floor in preparation, Camelia telling her afterwards to forget the team and focus on turning in a perfect beam for her own Olympic qualifying chances, Camelia getting drunk later and admitting to not caring about the team or vault with the hindsight of knowing Sabrina had qualified either way. But in the moment, it's hard to see how an outright instruction to baulk vault would make sense.

(The Disney princess music starting up in the background makes it all horribly funny. You expect to see the camera pan to Camelia transforming into a vampire bat ...).

For me, this one falls into the grounds of extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

We have multiple accounts from a range of sources about the Voinea's bullying, and it matches with the behavior we see at meet and the attitudes they profess in the media. I have little trouble believing them.

Attempting to manipulate and mastermind their country's Olympic qualifications from the floor mid-meet--it sounds like something they might want to do, but it's an extraordinary claim that would be very risky to attempt, and I'll need more information before I buy a subscription.
