Dan Murphy recounts the events that led to Larry Nassar, former physician for USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University, being convicted of criminal sexual conduct and child pornography charges.
The FBI's failures in the Nassar case are well documented. At a 2021 Senate hearing FBI Director Christopher Wray apologized to survivors of Nassar's abuse, saying it was"inexcusable" that agents"had their own chance to stop this monster back in 2015 and failed." A report by the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General found that in the summer of 2015"despite the extraordinarily serious nature of the allegations and the possibility that Nassar's conduct could be continuing, senior officials in the FBI Indianapolis Field Office failed to respond to the Nassar allegations with the utmost seriousness and urgency."
After conducting just one interview in September 2015, the FBI conducted"no investigative activity in the matter for more than eight months" the Office of Inspector General report concluded, while Nassar's sexual assaults continued, involving approximately 100 women.
