Former coach under investigation over nude body fat tests
Fox News
A former high school basketball coach is being investigated by the Rhode Island attorney general's office after former players came forward to say he for years asked male student-athletes to disrobe while alone with him so he could perform what he called body fat tests.
No criminal charges have been filed. A spokesperson for state Attorney General Peter Neronha confirmed the investigation this week but did not provide details.
Thomas' attorney, John MacDonald, said that the tests using skin fold calipers were done with parental consent and that his client has hundreds of signed consent forms collected over a period of several years as proof.
