FILE - In this Dec. 8, 2011 file photo, Zach Tomaselli, 23, holds a photo of himself and his brother taken at about the time he claims he was was sexually abused in 2002 by former Syracuse basketball coach Bernie Fine, at a news conference in Pittsburgh. Federal authorities have dropped their investigation into sexual abuse claims that cost Fine his job, threw a top-ranked team into turmoil and threatened the career of Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim. After a probe spanning nearly a year, U.S. Attorney Richard Hartunian said Friday, Nov. 9, 2012 there was no evidence to support claims that Fine had molested a boy in 2002 in a Pittsburgh hotel room. The investigation erupted in the glare of a spotlight on child abuse shone by the Penn State University scandal that broke shortly beforehand, when Davis and Lang accused the longtime assistant of fondling them when they were teens.
