Coach Sues Over Assault and Retaliation | Columbus News

A former football coach at Ohio Dominican University, Madison Lindamood, has filed a fiery federal lawsuit alleging she was targeted for reporting a player’s assault — only to face retaliation, intimidation, and job loss instead of justice. After the player allegedly grabbed her, forcibly took her bag, and left her bruised, Lindamood reported it to university officials — only to be questioned about her own actions, sidelined from team communications, publicly shamed, and eventually barred from returning to work. She also claims she was secretly recorded and followed on campus, and forced into unpaid overtime while receiving part-time pay. Now, she’s demanding reinstatement, back pay, and the removal of damaging records — all while exposing a system that punished her for speaking up.
