Molested at 14 by her swim coach and apparently publicly complaining about it since she was 21, she says her life is still damaged by the event though she is "strong and powerful."
If it wasn't quite rape, from her published descriptions as quoted on the web it came pretty close, and was repeated over a fairly long period of time.
All the while, the coach was doing the same to other girls at the same time.
And he went on doing it for years, was eventually fired, but never punished by the law.
As for her, a motivational speaker, a deservedly celebrated athlete, and a very out lesbian, she seems tremendously gregarious and not silent in the least, perhaps not about anything.
She is quoted just today in the chyron as saying she is full rage at being silenced.
But not for long, apparently.
