I do not feel that she should have been arrested. I mean, people have discussions and feelings and so on. She has things with herself she needs to work on, of course. I do that too, just like you and all people.
I am the type of guy who wants to show mercy, compassion and love, said Coleman to reporters after the American World Championship selections in Eugene.
Richardson was caught on film cameras at Seattle's airport when she pushed Coleman into a wall and threw a pair of headphones at him.
The 25-year-old was arrested but released from custody after just over a day. Coleman has announced that he does not want to participate in the police investigation.
She is a human being and a good person. In my eyes, she is the best female athlete in the world, I see it every day, says Coleman.
Richardson is the reigning World Champion on 100 meters and took silver on the same track at the Olympic Games in Paris. Coleman took World Championship gold on 100 meters in 2019.
