You just knew their original story was suspect.

Unless you were on one of the FR threads where all the posters insisted that the Brazilian police were lying to cover something up. LOL.
I think the video clip that was published on a British newspaper website sealed the deal. It exposed the U.S. swimmers' timeline as false, at a bare minimum.

The State Dept urged the swimmers to cooperate with officials
Anyone else note the irony in that?

IOC should issue a fine, and prohibit them from participating in 2020 Olympics for their stupidity.

Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. They may be great at what they do, but they are still dumb young men, basically on holiday.
But you know what? I’ll take THIS minor scandal over Palestinian b@stards torturing and murdering Israeli athletes in cold blood.
Perspective.

Just when did anyone involved tell authorities about this or file a false police report?
As I understand it, one of them told their mother and that is how it got out.
What law was broken, other than general stupidity? Wouldn’t there have to be some charge for some of those involved to be removed from a plane outbound from their 3rd world country for the sake of “answering questions” ?

As is usually the case, the result of the lying is going to be worse than if they just told the truth about the fight and accepted the consequences.

Hillary Clinton should read this story and hang her head in shame when she sees the public humiliation and worldwide disdain which these young men must and will face for their attempt at disguising their actions!!!
To: oh8eleven
I would normally go with believing the Americans but Lochte has been a known publicity hound reality TV flake for some time.

How about the lousy newspaper adding “According to Anonymous Brazilian Source” to the headline instead of treating like an established fact?

Yesterday I thought the swimmers' tale smelled rotten but didn't want to post my gut opinion on the original thread before more info came out because they are our guys. It smells worse today, but to some people here our athletes can do no wrong and they will not even believe any video posted.
