Sexual assault
CHICAGO (WLS) — The former Chicago Blackhawks player at the center of the sexual assault investigation that unraveled the team’s front office spoke out for the first time Wednesday. Kyle Beach, 31, was drafted by the Blackhawks in 2008. He chose to speak out about what happened to him.
Beach came forward and asked that his identity be revealed on TSN in Canada. He spoke about the last decade of his life, and shared an emotional message to victims of sexual abuse.
Brad aldrich
Kyle Beach came forward on Wednesday during an interview with TSN’s Rick Westhead to reveal he is the “John Doe” who filed a lawsuit against the Blackhawks in May 2021. The filing alleges the Blackhawks ignored and covered up his disclosure of then-video coach Brad Aldrich’s sexual assault of him in 2010.
The Blackhawks on Tuesday released to the public a detailed 107-page document following a four-month independent investigation that described the incidents that occurred in 2010, and the lack of an investigation by the Blackhawks organization at that time. It also announced that anyone directly involved was no longer with the team. Only general manager Stan Bowman — who “stepped aside” on Tuesday — and hockey operations senior vice president Al MacIsaac were still with the club.
Chicago blackhawks
Kyle Beach revealed his identity Wednesday on TSN in Canada as the former Chicago Blackhawks player former video coordinator Brad Aldrich allegedly sexually assaulted during the team’s Stanley Cup run in 2010.
Beach, 20 years old at the time of the incident, was part of the Blackhawks’ group of prospects who spent that postseason with the team in case of an injury or suspension. The 2008 11th overall pick never appeared in an NHL game.
Beach had previously been anonymous, but his identity became apparent thanks to several details in the report released Tuesday by the law firm conducting the investigation for the Blackhawks, Jenner & Block.
