Question

As a club administrator, you receive an allegation of child sexual abuse involving a 14-year-old athlete who is rumored to be sexually promiscuous. the legal age of consent in your state is 15. before reporting the allegation to the appropriate legal authorities, you must evaluate the credibility of the allegation by conducting an internal investigation.

Answer 1

That statement is false.
In this situation, you need to report the allegation directly to the authorities as soon as possible.
Performing internal investigation will probably give the perpetrators enough time to wipe out the pieces of evidence against them or even run away.
