Using performance enhancing drugs can result in a lifetime ban from the Olympics, with Wikipedia saying it’s an “integrity” issue. Aren’t we glad that raping a literal child isn’t an integrity issue?

The news where I live often calls Olympic winners “sports heroes”, I think this person should never be allowed anywhere near an event that might make people label them a hero.
