Jessica Yellin Instagram – DOJ SETTLES NASSAR CASE
The DOJ reached a $137.8 million settlement with victims of Larry Nassar, convicted former Team USA gymnastics doctor. The victims had sued the government alleging the FBI failed to sufficiently investigate sexual assault accusations against Nassar when they were first reported, enabling Nassar to assault more women and girls in his care.
Nassar is convicted of sexually assaulting hundreds of patients and possessing child sexual abuse materials. This settlement resolves the final major suit in the Nassar case. Previously the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee and Michigan State University also made major payouts to hundreds of victims. With the DOJ settlement, institutions have collectively paid nearly $1 billion for complicity in Nassar’s abuse.
