Jean-Luc Cairon

Jean-Luc Cairon was a French gymnast, coach and convicted felon.
Cairon was born in Forbach, France. He competed for his native France in eight events at the 1984 Summer Olympics.
Cairon was a co-owner and coach at now-defunct Krafft Academy in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He coached for over three years at South Country Gymnastics in Jenks, Oklahoma, and was an assistant women's gymnastics coach at Arizona State University.
In 2021, four athletes alleged Cairon had groomed them and touched them inappropriately, resulting in a report to the United States Center for SafeSport. Cairon was then arrested, released on bail, showed intent to flee the court's jurisdiction by leaving the United States, and was sentenced to 25 years for each count in prison upon a guilty plea. On 26 February 2022, Cairon died in prison while serving out his sentence, at the age of 60.
