USA Gymnastics Bankrupt In Nassar Lawsuits
USA Gymnastics Bankrupt In Nassar LawsuitsAs USA Gymnastics is now discovering, defending a sexual abuse lawsuit can be a financial nightmare. While lawsuits related to the alleged abuse of sports doctor Larry Nassar continue to be filed against the organization, USA Gymnastics filed bankruptcy in the Southern District of Indiana in early December. Growing Number of Nassar Lawsuits Over the last year, more than 100 lawsuits have been filed related to the alleged sexual abuse committed by Dr. Larry Nassar, longtime team physician for USA Gymnastics. Nassar, a physician based at Michigan State, oversaw medical treatment for young gymnasts in the USA Gymnastics system. Over 350 gymnasts have identified themselves as victims of Nassar’s sexual abuse, including several high profile Olympic athletes. USA Gymnastics is also named as a defendant in the Nassar lawsuits, based on its alleged failure to protect the young athletes from sexual abuse. In addition to the private lawsuits, the U.S. Olympic Committee has filed a Section 8 Complaint to remove USA Gymnastics as the national governing body for the sport.
