Michigan State taking steps to sanction two of Larry Nassar's former bosses

Michigan State took initial steps Friday to sanction two of Larry Nassar's former bosses at the university.

Interim president John Engler requested that Michigan State's provost revoke the tenure of former medical school dean William Strampel, which is the first step to firing him. The university's provost also suspended Dr. Suresh Mukherji, chair of the radiology department and another former supervisor for Nassar. Nassar, a former university and USA Gymnastics doctor, has been sentenced to up to 175 years in prison for molesting his patients. More than 250 women and girls have told police that Nassar assaulted them.
