This might be simplistic, but I dont understand why they got involved at all.

Similar to Chicago covering for their Video Coach, you hear these allegations and your response, as an organization, should probably be somewhere along the lines of:

"Well. That sounds like a crime to me. Someone should call the Police." *Dusts off Hands*

And then Hockey Canada and the CHL have no more involvement.

"Those guys committed some crimes. They probably shouldn't have done that. Now the Police do what Police do."

I dont understand why the organizations felt themselves to be responsible in any way.

Until they decide to cover it up. Then they engage in responsibility.
