"This eventually led him to give about $80,000, leaving him tens of thousands of dollars in debt and his children angry at the campaigns who they say tricked their dad and took advantage of his compromised state of mind."

[CNN This Morning with Audie Cornish @CNNThisMorning]

**CNN EXCLUSIVE** The coast guard has been hiding a damning investigation and report about sexual assault at its academy for years - until CNN recently uncovered it.

@PamelaBrownCNN on what she learned:

[CNN @CNN]

A secret investigation into alleged sexual abuse at the US Coast Guard Academy, the training ground for the agency's top officers, uncovered a dark history of rapes, assaults and other serious misconduct being ignored and, at times, covered up by high-ranking officials. 🧵

[Pamela Brown @PamelaBrownCNN]

The Coast Guard buried its report for several years on systemic sexual abuse at the Academy that was largely ignored & only briefed Congress this week when CNN reached out for comment. So please take a moment to read this important reporting @melhicken @blakeellis3 @audrey_ashhh

[Melanie Hicken @melhicken]

@blakeellis3 and I've been asking the Coast Guard about whether Congress had been briefed on this secret investigation years ago --> Officials briefed members of Congress this month. Watch @PamelaBrownCNN on TV all day discussing our exclusive report https://t.co/D1aqiReD7X
