RE: Does Tonya Harding Deserve a Makeover From the History Books?
That what I think, too. Tried to present the other perspective here also and be fair about it, but in the end, her actions were very wrong unless she was forced into doing them.
Even if forced to do it, she had plenty of support in the Olympics. At that level, she would have been told about people she could go to for help and protection. Where was her coach during the abuse from her husband? It might be a failure on many levels, but all she had to do was tell someone to get out of the mess.
Supposedly, even her coach and her family did not believe some of the things she was saying about him. I think you have it right with "failure on many levels", including hers.
