Former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar agreed to plead guilty to child pornography charges, according to a document scheduled to be filed in federal court this week.

Kim Kozlowski of the Detroit News reported Nassar will plead guilty to "three charges, including receipt and possession of child porn and destruction and concealment of records."

Nassar, 53, downloaded thousands of pornographic images and videos of children beginning in 2004. The document states he attempted to destroy the files and dispose of hard drives when it became clear he was under investigation.

"The defendant then turned the wiped laptop over to his employer," according to the document. "Forensic analysis of the machine revealed that the defendant had completely wiped it of all content."

As part of the plea agreement, prosecutors will not pursue child molestation charges for events that allegedly happened between 2006 and 2015. Nassar has been accused of sexually abusing more than 100 of his former patients, including former Team USA gymnasts.

So ..".the prosecutors will not pursue child molestation charges......" Fuck the prosecutors..Yes. child porn possession is bad, kinda kinky.................................
."Sexually abusing former patients"...more than 100......life in prison... ... like rape....

.He probably will get some years..maybe 10-who knows..and be labeled a pervert, but if he were in prison for "child molestation"..well..he wouldn't do so well in prison. That is my opinion, and it is ugly..but sexually molesting one hundred women, women under the guise of being their doctor..Well..you be the judge..

1. They have him NAILED and they plea bargin??

What a bunch of shit..............

[Stuart G]

2. I agree...it looks like a "fix" was in...but,

I don't know nothing..... This is an awful "plea bargain" I wonder how it would have gone, if one of the prosecutors knew one of the victims.?

7. There's Nothing

in anything I've read that has him nailed on the molestation charges. Maybe it will be tough to get, so they are making hay while the sun shines on the other charges. These cases are unpredictable cough cough Cosby cough cough.

5. I think it depends on the details of the bargain because I believe it's federal

court in which case there is no parole option which means that he is unlikely to get out before he dies assuming the sentence is more than 40+ years.

3. The minds of those sexually abused can't be wiped.

[Lucky Luciano]

4. WTF? They should nail him for the molestation and drop the porn charges.

[Ilsa]

6. I don't understand why the US Olympics couldn't get a

woman doctor for the female gymnasts. Those women were young, and some were probably still girls. As a parent, I doubt I would want a doctor I didn't choose poking around my kids' private parts.

8. Sounds like women's gymnastics is full of molesters

A 20-year toll: 368 gymnasts allege sexual exploitation

INVESTIGATIONS REVEALED THAT CHILDREN WERE BEING ABUSED IN GYMNASTICS GYMS, BUT NO ONE KNEW HOW WIDESPREAD THE PROBLEM WAS. UNTIL NOW.

A 12-year-old gymnast molested by an Olympic coach during “therapy” sessions.

Children as young as 6 secretly photographed nude by coaches.

Coaches who slipped a finger inside girls’ leotards.

A coach having almost daily sex with a 14-year-old at one of the country’s most prestigious gyms.

No one knows exactly how many children have been sexually exploited in America’s gyms over the past 20 years. At least 368 gymnasts have alleged some form of sexual abuse at the hands of their coaches, gym owners and other adults working in gymnastics.

Nassar pleads guilty to all counts in child porn case; could face 22-27 years in prison

Larry Nassar, the former Michigan State University sports doctor accused of sexual abuse, says he obtained "thousands of images and videos" of child pornography over a 13-year period and then paid a vendor to delete all material on his computer to evade investigators.

The acknowledgement came in a written plea agreement read aloud this morning in U.S. District Court in Grand Rapids, where Nassar pled guilty to receipt of child pornography, possession of child pornography and destruction and concealment of records.

Nassar, who has been in custody since December, could get 22 to 27 years in prison based on sentencing guidelines and tentative scoring of the case, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Sean Lewis.

The plea agreement says that in exchange for Nassar's guilty plea, the FBI will drop its investigation into conduct that allegedly occurred in his swimming pool during the summer 2015 involving two minor children and allegations of sexual abuse that occurred during interstate and international travel between 2006 and 2012 involving two other girls.

The interstate and international traveled involved Nassar's work with top U.S. gymnasts while he was team doctor and chief medical director for USA Gymnastics, the organization that oversees the sports in the U.S.

10. What is MOST disturbing about this is how many others

KNEW about it and kept their mouths shut. Even praising him as a great doctor.

"A fourth MSU athlete, Christie Achenbach, says she told a Michigan State coach in 1999 details of what happened to her during an appointment with Nassar that year -- a year after Thomas Lopez had complained to trainers about Nassar. Achenbach told Outside the Lines her coach assured her Nassar was a respected physician."

And for how long this had been happening with no repercussions. It's sickening.

11. Yes, it said in today's story about this (testimony at trial)

It said that many at Michigan State knew and did nothing..

here is a link that people knew about this:

_________________________________________________________________________________________
At least 14 Michigan State University Officials were notified of sex abuse allegations against faculty member Larry Nassar, who also served as USA Gymnastics national team doctor, in the two decades before his shocking arrest — but the school repeatedly missed opportunities to stop him, according to a damning report.

The Detroit News investigation, which drew information from university records and victim accounts, reported current MSU President Lou Anna Simon was among those notified.

“I was informed that a sports medicine doctor was under investigation,” Simon told the newspaper Wednesday after appearing in court for a Nassar sentencing hearing. “I told people to play it straight up, and I did not receive a copy of the report. That’s the truth.”
