"Larry Nassar, longtime doctor at Michigan State University and physician for the US Olympic gymnastics team, has been called one of the worst sexual predators in history. This is the inside story of how he got away with abusing hundreds of gymnasts for decades--and how a team of brave women, activists, and lawyers banded together to bring him down"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This is the story of the brave gymnasts who finally decided that Larry Nassar had taken advantage of too many young girls and that he finally needed to be held accountable. After years of molesting, and in the case of one gymnast raping, young woman Nassar was finally arrested and pled guilty, via plea deal, to multiple child pornography charges and sexual assault charges. Another important condition of the deal was that his victims would have the ability to confront him. 156 victims confronted Nassar in court and took back the power he stole from them. Nassar will serve a total of 175 years in jail for his crimes.
Just a warning: this book will make you scream, hit things, and throw things kind of angry. The fact that Nassar was allowed free access to so many young girls despite warning signs is reprehensible. It is clear that he groomed so many girls and their families. As a victim of grooming and sexual assault, it broke my heart to see how easily this man was allowed to take advantage of these girls, sometimes in front of their parents, is horrific and everyone who enabled him needs to be held accountable.
