    Some kind of fancy full body scanner, I think measuring body composition, fat percentage and so forth, seen at the FINA 2013 World Swimming Championships in Barcelona, Spain. Coaches also welcome. I didn’t go.

    The suspect, Jamie Thomas, is the owner and head coach at the New South Swimming club. Court documents indicate Thomas was arrested on Sept. 18 for sexual misconduct, a misdemeanor. The warrant states Thomas performed oral sex on a juvenile without consent.

    In an effort to protect the victim’s identity, some details about the case are being withheld.

    Thomas did make his $5,000 bond.
