It is mind-boggling that 125 women, yes 125, are presenting victim statements this week regarding USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. Their statements, though incredibly difficult to hear and watch, were powerfully moving and show unimaginable strength and courage.

Larry Nassar, the evil monster that he is, abused young girls for over TWENTY years. He will be sentenced on 10 counts of first degree criminal sexual conduct. This morning he sent a letter to the judge. 

In a six-page single-spaced letter, Nassar complained it was too hard for him to listen to dozens of accusers describe how he abused them under the guise of medical treatments and how it wrecked their lives. He said the judge had turned the proceeding into a “media circus” and put herself in the spotlight.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, he really did.

Talk about chutzpah. "Now this is entertaining to me," Judge Rosemarie Aquilina commented as she read a letter… https://t.co/LLe0fo0xxM

I should be floored by this but honestly I'm just so numb to everything this jerk has done

Quite honestly, I had to pick my jaw up off the floor and reattach it. That miserable cretin had the unbelievable GALL to whine that HIS feelings would be hurt? That HE wouldn’t be able to handle the mental anguish??

Rightfully so, Judge Aquilina took him apart.

150 women were abused and molested by Nassar over a 20 year time span. Quite a few had, along with their parents, reported his actions to the coaches, training staff, University of Michigan officials, and law enforcement. And for nearly 20 years, NOTHING was done. 

Reports of sexual misconduct by Dr. Larry Nassar reached at least 14 Michigan State University representatives in the two decades before his arrest, with no fewer than eight women reporting his actions, a Detroit News investigation has found.

Among those notified was MSU President Lou Anna Simon, who was informed in 2014 that a Title IX complaint and a police report had been filed against an unnamed physician, she told The News on Wednesday.

Unbelievable. Fourteen people were notified and yet they sat on their hands and let a sexual predator continue to destroy lives. It is only thanks to gymnast Rachel Denhollander, who went public in September 2016, that this predator was stopped.

“A monster was stopped last year, after decades of being allowed to prey on women and little girls, and he wasn’t stopped by a single person who could have, and should have stopped him at least 20 years ago,” Denhollander told The News last week. “He was stopped by the victims, who had to fight through being silenced, being threatened, being mocked, by the officials at MSU who they appealed to for help.

Yes, he was. But now HE wants to play the victim???!!!

The audacity of this piece of shit to seriously say HE is struggling with hearing back the accounts of what HE did to girls and women and how HE hurt them. Give me a fucking break. https://t.co/c54mgBJVBA

I couldn’t agree more. Not only that, but his attorney is all bent out of shape, too.

Nassar's attorney, Matt Newburg said Community of Mental Health will be reaching out to the court. The judge said Nassar will meet with them everyday after the hearing. @WLNS

You know who the Community of Mental Health should be working with?? The VICTIMS. Nassar is NOT a victim. Period.

Every woman who spoke on Tuesday and Wednesday were described by The Athletic as portraits of profound strength.

These women came to court Tuesday seeking justice, but also something else. Some wanted to offer forgiveness. Some wanted peace. Some simply wanted to say what he did, out loud.

Kyle Stephens made one of the most powerful statements during these proceedings. It is graphic and could be very difficult to watch.

'Little girls don't stay little forever. They grow into strong women that return to destroy your world.'

Yes, Larry, what Kyle said is true.

“Little girls don’t stay little forever. They grow into strong women who return to destroy your world.”

Larry, you thought you could get away with your evil predatory ways. You were enabled by far too many who should bear the blame in this. You took the trust, innocence, and self worth away from over 150 young girls. You can whine all you want about how this will “hurt your mental health.” To that I say, too bad, so sad, you miserable sniveling cretin. You destroyed lives. Deal with it.
