Almost all victims (and there were about 150) said that they felt when, as children, got to the appointment with Dr. Nassar. According to the girls, instead of having to help the young gymnasts with their problems, a man molested and raped them, many of them at that time was more innocent.
54-year-old doctor pleaded guilty to 10 sexual assaults on girls and young women, including Olympic Champions. But after that Nassar sent the judge a letter, assuring her that it was coerced.

National collegiate athletic Association United States promised to begin the investigation to find out why for many years the doctor-the pedophile was allowed to continue to practice medicine.
