Swimmer Jimmy Feigen ordered to pay $10,800 to avoid charges in Brazil

American swimmer Jimmy Feigen has agreed to pay $10,800 to charity to resolve a dispute involving false reporting of a crime. Feigen’s lawyer, Breno Melaragno Costa, announced the deal Friday morning after meeting with prosecution officials at a Rio police station the day before.

At least for Feigen this appears to be the end of the long, bizarre saga involving Ryan Lochte and two other American swimmers who managed to start an international controversy.

Feigen, a gold medalist in the 4x100 relay, was one of four American swimmers who claimed to be robbed at gunpoint by men impersonating police officers after a night of partying in the Olympic host city. Video evidence and witness testimony later revealed those reports were false and that the men had lied about parts of their story, which had included Lochte saying one of the men put a gun to his head.

The false claims led to the possibility of charges for falsifying a criminal report. Feigen and Lochte were both indicted on Thursday, but the latter had already flown home by the time police wanted to detain him.

The other three swimmers didn’t have it as easy. Gunnar Bentz and Jack Conger were on a plane to leave Rio when they were pulled off and detained by police. They were released Thursday after talking and returned to the U.S., however, leaving Feigen as the lone swimmer stuck in limbo in Brazil.

Now that Feigen has agreed to pay 35,000 reals, about $10,800, to an unspecified charity, he’ll be given back his passport and allowed to leave the country. The case is also “resolved,” according to Melaragno, so it appears this story is finally reaching its conclusion.
