Did someone rob the swimmers at gunpoint?
IMO, it is looking more and more likely they are hiding something. I wouldn't think they would make it up for no reason, if it turns out to be a lie.

I'm wondering if Lochte just didn't lose his wallet while drunk and didn't want to tell his mom, so he made up a story. It was his mom who first reported it. Lochte didn't call the cops until the story was already out. And wouldn't the cabbie have filed a police report if his passengers were robbed? Something's fishy.

I know nothing of the character of these young men - but could hookers have robbed them and they made up this cover story?

Are you sure that they were not trying to use the bathroom and had a language issue?

Seriously, it should not be hard to believe that tourists would get robbed in a county with high poverty areas right on the outskirts of the Olympic Village. quick research got this and there's plenty more. Why is everyone so quick to believe Lochte's lying?

My theory is that Ryan had to leave his money behind, even it was not entirely voluntary, and he tells his Mom she needs to move more money into his account because he got robbed. She starts telling everyone about this horrid thing that has happened to her son, and this sets in motion a wheel Lochte cannot stop. Moral of the story---don't lie to your mother, especially when you are a 32 year old man.

Anyone with young adult children will understand what happened here. There is some truth to their statements, but the details are just a little fuzzy. Yes there was a gun pointed at them (by a security guard who was trying to make them pay for a restroom that they vandalized) and yes they lost some money (paying for the destroyed bathroom). Of course, being held up at gunpoint is a much better story than getting blind drunk, stumbling into a gas station restroom, committing vandalism, fighting with the owner, and having a security guard detain you until you make restitution.
If they had kept their mouths shut, none of this would be happening. They spouted off about the robbery story to the media and the local authorities opened an investigation.
