When you talk of abusing power you are assuming that something happened, yes?
Greg denies all allegations of crime in these cases: it stands as "she said, he said." Read the stats from above.
First, you should know that power is not only relative to position.
Second, let me define a word that you may be having a hard time with: agressor. For many, this involves some kind of "hostile behavior." In this case, it means, "assertive, bold, and enterprising." Which is interesting, because when you dig a little bit further, enterprising can be defined as engaging in a profitable "systematic activity (all definitions: American Heritage College Dictionary, 3rd Ed.)." The key word being systematic, the approach these girls would take over and over and over again to try to get Greg to fall prey to their school girl antics and crushes.
Unfortunately, the only thing that happened is that these delusional girls have filled their heads with what they wanted to happen with Greg vs. what actually did happen.
Interesting fact: the girl who has claimed the most charges against Greg couldn't face him during the sentencing. She declined any comments towards her supposed abuser and couldn't stay in the court room to witness his sentence of 43 years.
Is it possible that she realized what she had been doing the entire time was a lie? That it had turned into a game that became serious? It was series of untruths that stretched the web so far it began to break? She realized that she will have to live the rest of her life knowing that she sent an innocent man to prison?
You act like you know so much, but it is amazing how truly little you really know.
Were you around these girls at the gym? Do you know these girls? Did you see how they interacted with Greg? Did you attend any of their meets or practices? How about any of the dances they held at the Gymnastics Center, did you attend any of those?
I did, and guess what? What all of the former gymnasts above are saying is absolutely true. These girls were the agressors.
Stop commenting on things you know nothing about. Quit stirring the pot because you want some attention. Quit acting like you are an important part of the puzzle.
I hear sounds of perdition in your words: "I do feel sorry for him because the tremendous pressure that was put on him to be perfect and attain godhood has completely destroyed such a talented life."
Religion, God or Greg's striving for perfection didn't destroy his life...
But, individuals like yourself are trying to do a SHORT-LIVED job of it.
