Feds: Dr. Nassar had child porn computer files destroyed
GRAND RAPIDS - Federal prosecutors added a child pornography-related charge on Tuesday against former Michigan State University doctor Larry Nassar.
Nassar, 53, of Holt, was indicted in December on two federal child pornography charges for possessing and attempting to obtain child pornography. A third charge was added Tuesday in a superseding indictment that alleges Nassar had images or files destroyed.
Matt Newburg, Nassar's attorney, declined to comment.
Between Sept. 19 and Sept. 20, Nassar "caused a third-party vendor to permanently delete and destroy all images, records, documents, and files contained on the hard drive of a laptop computer, and the defendant threw in the trash a number of external hard drives," according to the indictment.
"At the time the defendant took these actions, he contemplated an investigation into, among other things, his possession of child pornography, his receipt and attempted receipt of child pornography, and his sexual exploitation and attempted sexual exploitation of children."
