The cops got called because his kid said his dad was "constantly yelling and screaming?"

He tried to keep the UF student newspaper from writing about the abuse allegations:
quote:

A lawyer for O’Sullivan sent a cease-and-desist letter to The Alligator late Tuesday, demanding the student-run newspaper refrain from “publishing any article regarding any report of the abuse of a minor child.” In the letter, O’Sullivan’s attorney wrote, “As you should know, no matter how or from whom you received the information upon which you wish to report, reports of child abuse are protected under Florida law, such that any disclosure is a crime.”

“You should not write, publish or disseminate in any way any article involving any complaints made by or about a minor child who is the subject of DCF investigations, all of which have been or are in the process of being closed as unfounded,” O’Sullivan’s lawyer wrote. The letter cited state statutes governing the confidentiality and release of records relating to allegations and investigations of child abuse and neglect.

The Alligator’s decision to report the allegations contained in the law enforcement records was made because O’Sullivan is a high-profile public figure who oversees and mentors college athletes only a few years older than his eldest teen. As head coach, he represents one of the top SEC baseball programs as well as Florida’s flagship public university. This reporting does not name O’Sullivan’s children or include other personal details about them and their relationship with their father that appear in public records, which The Alligator obtained through requests made under Florida’s Sunshine Law.

The status of the state’s investigations — including whether they have been completed or whether O’Sullivan has been exonerated — are unknown. DCF spokesperson Anna Archambault declined to comment.

Under Florida law, child abuse investigations are confidential unless a child dies. No court records indicate O’Sullivan has been arrested or charged in relation to any such investigation, and in June, a family court judge affirmed there was “no history of domestic violence.”

This is why we have a generation of soft boys. They're so feminized, any symbol of testosterone scares them.

You know

I get what you are saying. But there is also verbal domestic violence. Which can be just as harmful as physical violence. None of us know for certain but him taking a leave of absence is not just because he’s old school. There most likely a little more to it.

Yep. My old man yelled and whipped my arse with a belt. I turned out fine. Got a decent job, family of 4 with 2 dogs, nice house, two nice vehicles, two 401ks, etc. Did me solid. RIP pops.

1990?

Us Boomers thought you Duran Duran listenin', Pac Man playin', Brat Pack watchin' Gen Xer guys were a bunch of pussies.

But I think I'm going skip the part about what the generations ahead of us thought of Baby Boomers.

Baby Boomers created a counter culture that still has the country fricked and divided today. Baby Boomer leaders have been outright shite bags.
