Richardson apologized to Coleman and said, “I love him and I can’t apologize enough to him.”
When the recordings of the incident became public, Coleman Richardson described as “a man and a big person”.
Athletic said, “There is a lot of things going on, many emotions and forces that happen in it, which not only can’t understand, but no one can.”
After the arrest, the USA Track and Field said she was “aware of the reports” but “would not comment on this matter”.
