Gymnasts Simone Biles, Aly Raisman to testify in US Senate sex abuse probe

WASHINGTON : Olympic gymnasts Simone Biles and Aly Raisman will testify on Wednesday about the sexual abuse they suffered at the hands of disgraced USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, as the U.S. Senate examines why the FBI failed to investigate his crimes sooner.

Horowitz will also testify on Wednesday as will FBI Director Chris Wray, who is expected to face sharp bipartisan questioning about why the agents who botched the probe were never prosecuted for their misconduct. When the interview was finally documented in 2017 by an unnamed supervisory special agent, the report was filled with"materially false information and omitted material information," Horowitz's report determined."Children suffered needlessly because multiple agents in multiple offices at the FBI neglected to share the Nassar allegations with their law enforcement counterparts at state and local agencies," ranking Republican Charles Grassley said in prepared remarks.

Neither Abbott nor the other unnamed supervisory special agent who botched the Nassar probe were prosecuted for their actions.
