US doctor accused of sexually abusing 177 students eNCA

File: The victims included school athletes who saw the doctor at the university health centre and at an off-campus private medical office.WASHINGTON - An Ohio State University team doctor sexually abused at least 177 male students over nearly two decades and was never disciplined at the US school despite reports of his actions, an investigation found.

The probe looked into misconduct allegations from 1979 to 1997 reported by former students -- 150 of whom reported first-hand accounts of sexual abuse committed by Strauss. The victims included school athletes as well as other students who saw Strauss at the university health centre and at an off-campus private medical office.

University president Michael Drake said an independent investigation was launched into the allegations after they were brought to the university's attention last year.
