I actually think he should have been banned for life....although he will be 80 years old before the ban ends, and I hope the dressage community blacklists him after that on their own.

Yes, I thought the same, but youβre quite right, 15 yrs is, to all intents, the rest of his life. I know, specifically, that his business has, for the most part, dried up. Certainly no equestrian looking to move up in Dressage, will work with him.
I have been in the dressage scene in S. FL for decades; long before he came on the scene. He was abusive for FAR too long, and not because it wasn't reported. And NGBs in the industry turned a blind eye to HIM for far too long, while falsely accusing others. FEI/USEF finally got this one right. π
