German Coach Kicked Out of The Olympics For Punching Horse
Coach Kim Raisner was heard on German TV urging tearful athlete Annika Schleu to “really hit” the horse while she struggled to control Saint Boy during the showjumping round.
Schleu had been leading the event before the equestrian, where athletes are given just 20 minutes to bond with a horse they have never ridden.
I think the coach should be banned from contact with any animal for life if that’s how she treats them. I mean, if this is how she acts on live TV, I don’t want to imagine what that horse endures behind the scenes.
The rider should also face discipline for the overuse of her whip. It was way beyond what should have been acceptable. Both should be banned from the team permanently.
