The second season of Netflix’s “Cheer” is out today. Episode five includes interviews with me and Tricia L. Nadolny. More importantly, it shares the stories of Charlie and Sam, twin brothers who were the first to come forward with allegations against Jerry Harris.

The show also cites our broader investigation into misconduct in cheerleading. We found pervasive failures in how the sport’s governing bodies handled allegations of misconduct involving minors, including the allegations against Jerry Harris. usatoday.com/in-depth/news/…
