Apparently the FBI was aware of the allegations, but didn't investigate adequately. This allowed Nassar's abuse to go on much longer than it should have.

Simone Biles is testifying now

I have a daughter in gymnastics and I'm far more afraid of some creep doing things to her than potential broken bones or harsh falls.

The entire US gymnastics program needs to be torn down and rebuilt from scratch with no one from leadership retaining any position in it.

Like the system is completely fucking broken.

Institutionalized, systemic child abuse and neglect. Both high level youth athletics and the Nassar stuff. The culture is already bad, that's why such bad things could happen inside it.

Fuck the FBI. Seems like everyone involved enabled this scum bag which makes them just as scummy.

"A lot of girls thought it would be cool to have the same doctor as us, so they also went to see Larry Nassar"

Yuck to all of this
Nassar is fucking disgusting but good on these women for forcing this along despite the system trying to stop them. Champions on multiple levels

I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.

Just finished it

The insanity they went through, and the courage they displayed to go public in front of the country about this...

All of them are heroes and hopefully this sparks change that will save a lot of young girls and boys moving forward.
