After Nassar sentence, investigation needed at Michigan State

On Jan. 24, the infamous USA Gymnastics and Michigan State doctor Larry Nassar was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison for sexually abusing 156 young athletes over the duration of his career.

“I just signed your death warrant,” Judge Rosemarie Aquilina said as she handed down her decision.

While Nassar’s conviction and sentencing were important in serving justice to his victims, there are many more adults that must be held responsible for these egregious crimes.

Most of the negative publicity has been directed at USA Gymnastics, and rightfully so.
