Safesport encompasses a wide variety of misconduct. I wonder what it was? I recall there being drama about McDowald's sportsmanship during competition, but presumably this is something much more severe.

Yeah, I found it very shocking given he literally won the team epee gold the day before during PanAms and then was immediately suspended indefinitely. I'm curious if we'll ever get more details or not.
