A former police officer from Allentown, Pennsylvania, who was previously fired from the U.S. Center for SafeSport for allegedly stealing money from a drug bust, has been arrested again on charges of rape and sex trafficking. Krasley, who worked as an investigator at SafeSport, was fired in 2022 after being arrested for theft. The new charges stem from alleged crimes committed while he was on the police force between 2011 and 2015.

Krasley left the department in 2021 and went to work for the SafeSport Center, which fired him last year shortly after learning he’d been arrested for allegedly stealing $5,500 from a drug bust he helped conduct while on the force. The Denver-based center was established in 2017 to deal with sex-abuse cases in Olympic sports from the elite level down to the grassroots. As of late last year, it had 36 people on its investigation team; it has tapped into police forces, where some detectives deal with similar cases, to fill some of those positions.
The AP has learned of two cases Krasley handled — one of which was assigned to another investigator after his arrest on the theft charges. In the other, the claimant asked if her case could be reopened in the wake of the arrest and was told in an email from a SafeSport employee that “those matters are already being reviewed prior to the requests and media attention.
