    Serial pedophile Larry Nassar videotaped the rape of a young field hockey player that led to her pregnancy in 1992 – and when her coach at Michigan State University complained about it to athletic director George Perles, he intervened and covered it up, according to an explosive new lawsuit filed in federal court.

    “This proves that not only did Defendant Michigan State University have knowledge that Defendant Nassar sexually abused and sexually assaulted minors, but that it would also go to great lengths to conceal this conduct,” according to the court documents. “Defendant Michigan State University could have stopped Defendant Nassar’s conduct back in 1992, but did not.

    “Michigan State University could have prevented hundreds of young girls and women from being sexually assaulted by Defendant Nassar had they only acted appropriately, decently and lawfully in 1992.”

    The plaintiff, California resident Erika Davis, alleges that she went to see Nassar and was sexually abused and raped by him in 1992 when she was 17 and had injured herself while on a scholarship at MSU.

    The rape occurred, according to the court documents, after Nassar told Davis he was conducting a study on flexibility through MSU’s College of Osteopathic Medicine. There was also cameraman at the meeting, according to the court documents. Davis asked how many people were in the study and Nassar told her that she would be the third but she had to be 18 to consent and her coach could consent for her since she was 17.

    “Nassar further inquired whether Plaintiff Erika had ever had a breast examination, and she had not,” according to the court documents. “Nassar asked her to remove her shirt and bra, which she did. ... During this time, the cameraman was filming Defendant Nassar’s sexual abuse of (Davis)."

    Afterward, Nassar asked Davis to come back for a female exam in a week. When she came back, Nassar made Davis take a pill that he had crushed up but did not tell her what he had given her and she became drowsy soon after, according to the court documents. He used a camera to record the appointment, according to the court documents.

    “When she was less woozy a short time later, Plaintiff Erika witnessed Defendant Nassar raping her,” according to the court documents. ”

    Davis was in pain and told two friends later that night and they agreed to go with her to police when she was ready.

    Davis also told her coach, who confronted Nassar and demanded the video, according to the court documents.

    The coach also complained to Perles, who was then MSU’s athletic director, the suit alleges.

    “(Perles) intervened and the charges were dropped against the coach, but she was forced to return the video, resign and sign a non-disclosure agreement,” according to the court documents. “Upon information and belief, Coach Martha made and retained a copy of the videotape.”

    I really don't understand the even the logic behind the moves here, either. Even if I were so demented as to want to put the well-being of a gymnastics program over the sexual safety of young girls, I can't imagine Nassar was that vital to Michigan State's success. He could have been quietly fired and replaced at bare minimum. Even if you didn't care about the crimes he was committing, you had to understand as long as he was under MSU employ, there was a chance he would get caught and tarnish the entire AD. Why put up with that risk? Why would an AD cover all that up and risk ruining his reputation forever to protect this loser?

    Nassar had to have some dirt on a lot of people too.

    Because you pray and believe that it’ll never come to light, at all. And you’re willing to bet the safety of all future female athletes on your ability to prevent it.

    That’s the sort of megalomania that a situation such as this requires, and is the same which runs rampant in more AD’s than most would admit, or care to know.

    IMHO, JMHO.

    True...but once you fail to immediately turn him into the police, it’s no longer “his” dirt, but “everyone’s” dirt.
