ABC where Shane Lewis, Colin Marshall, Toby Blundell and Paul Shearer accused the coach of abuse. These media outlets are now doing through investigations as the families of the victims are out for blood.
Shearer first went public in 2009, and said he was a victim of at least 20 incidents of abuse by a coach in the late 1980s over a period of around 18 months.
Wright could not be named as the coach in question at the time the accusations were published, but the report references him as the perpetrator.
Lewis died in February this year aged 47 with the cause yet to be determined, although his family believe it was suicide.
Swimming Australia has faced criticism over its handling of the abuse allegations.
Eugenie Buckley, chief executive of Swimming Australia, said the governing body “can absolutely commit to doing better.”
“The process has changed significantly since 2009,” said Buckley.
“It’s 12 years on, so it is a different process these days.
“An allegation of this seriousness, any allegation in relation to child abuse will automatically be referred to Sport Integrity Australia for independent investigation.
“They’ve got the investigation expertise and that’s what would happen today.
“I think this is a process that just never stops.
“It’s never ‘job done’ in relation to child safety.”
