One of the reasons that this former A list athlete took his own life was he feared his biggest secret being revealed.

It remains to be seen if that will occur now because there really is no need to bring it to the light of day.

Allegations Against John Coughlin ‘Sent Him Over the Edge’ Before Apparent Suicide, Says Coach

Former U.S. figure skater John Coughlin, who died of an apparent suicide on Friday, hit a very low point after he was suspended from the sport the previous day, his longtime coach tells PEOPLE.

“I’m am saddened with great grief that a young man who was the kindest, caring, and an extremely admired person hit such a low point because of the loss of all he knows. John lost his reputation, his name, his work, his dignity and what he loved most, skating,” Coughlin’s coach of over 20 years, Dalilah Sappenfield, tells PEOPLE.

“The irresponsibility of today’s social media, whose opinions became trial and persecution, is what led this beautiful young man to give up on life,” she adds. “John was a very caring and selfless person. Always putting others ahead of himself. The incredible amount of love and support he is receiving from around the world is a testament to that and to the positive effect he had on everyone. He was an amazing ambassador for our sport.”

Coughlin died at age 33 in Kansas City, Missouri, on Friday, according to his sister Angela Laune. – Source
