US EditionSafeSport Center to Grassley: 'Should have been additional scrutiny' on ex-cop's hiring
- The U.S. Center for SafeSport employed Jason Krasley, a former officer from Allentown, Pennsylvania, who was subsequently accused of sexual assault and other serious crimes related to his previous law enforcement duties.
- Senator Chuck Grassley questioned the Center for hiring Krasley despite knowing he faced an internal investigation, and no evidence shows further inquiry occurred before his hiring.
- The Center learned on September 4, 2024, about 2019 theft and 2024 harassment allegations involving Krasley, monitored him closely for two months, then fired him about two and a half years after hiring.
- Jessica Perrill, the Center’s general counsel, acknowledged in a March 14 letter to Grassley that additional scrutiny was warranted at hiring, but law enforcement asked the Center not to alert Krasley due to an ongoing criminal investigation.
- The Krasley case led to CEO Ju'Riese Colon's departure two weeks ago, and the Center has since implemented stronger hiring policies including enhanced reference checks and National Decertification Index access.
