Dr. Kent Scheff has been on ‘investigatory leave’ since December while a law firm hired by the university investigates allegations of misconduct.

A University of California Berkeley team doctor has been on leave since December while a law firm hired by the school conducts an investigation into allegations of misconduct against the physician, the Southern California News Group has learned.

“As per policies that protect privacy, personnel issues and due process, all we are able to say is that Dr. Scheff remains on investigatory leave,” Cal said in a statement to SCNG. The investigation into Scheff was prompted by complaints last year by Cal female athletes who alleged misconduct by the doctor, according to a UC Berkeley athlete who has been interviewed by attorneys hired by the university.

Daniel Snyder conducted ‘shadow investigation’ of accusers, panel findsThe investigation by the House Committee on Oversight and Reform also found that Commanders owner Daniel Snyder and his representatives attempted to blame the franchise's workplace issues on former team president Bruce Allen. Didn’t read the article but I guess he found they did nothing wrong. Of all the possibilities for the letter 'W' Mr. Synder came up with the absolute worst. Wait, don't we have a law-enforcement system in place to handle crime? Why is this going from shadow investigation to House Committee? If this is not political game, I don't know what is.
