Lansing — The numbers are mind-numbing. The stories leave you speechless.
But that is the point of all this. It is about more than justice, which is long overdue and won’t ever be enough for the girls and young women sexually abused by Larry Nassar, the former Michigan State and U.S. Olympics doctor who’ll spend the rest of his life in prison.
It is about more than catharsis, too, though only the survivors of Nassar’s decades of predatory behavior — a group that continues to grow in size and stature, with homegrown Olympic star Jordyn Wieber of DeWitt among those stepping forward Friday — can truly understand how necessary and important that might feel.
