Larry Nassar hears testimony at sentencing: ‘You are a repulsive liar’
LANSING, Mich. (AP) — One after one, gymnasts and other victims of a disgraced former sports doctor stepped forward in a Michigan courtroom Tuesday to recount the sexual abuse and emotional trauma Larry Nassar inflicted on them as children — one with the warning that “little girls don’t stay little forever.”
Nearly 100 women and girls planned to speak or have their statements read during an extraordinary four-day sentencing hearing.
Many of them cried as they gave the initial testimonies Tuesday.
Some requested that their identities not be made public. The judge consoled the victims and said they should not blame themselves.
