Michigan AG Closes Investigation into MSU's Handling of Larry Nassar Scandal
After reviewing newly released documents, authorities found no new evidence against Michigan State University.
- Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel concluded the investigation into MSU's handling of Larry Nassar's abuse after receiving over 6,000 additional documents.
- The documents, withheld for years under attorney-client privilege, revealed no new information about the university's knowledge of Nassar's actions.
- Nessel criticized MSU for delaying the release, which prolonged the victims' search for closure and gave them false hope.
- Nassar, a former MSU and USA Gymnastics physician, is serving a prison sentence of 40 to 175 years for sexually abusing hundreds of athletes.
- Despite extensive investigations and document reviews, there remains no clear explanation for how Nassar's abuse continued unchecked for decades.
