“FBI agents disregarded allegations by Olympic gymnasts that they were sexually assaulted by former national team doctor Larry Nassar and later made false statements to cover their mistakes, Justice Department investigators said Wednesday in a long-awaited report on the bureau’s handling of one of the biggest abuse cases in U.S. sports history.”

Wasn't Comey the director then?

LOL you think the FBI director monitors every tip and allegation that comes into a local FBI field office? The entire point was that the local FBI manager in Indianapolis sat on the allegation because he was trying to shake down the US Olympic Committee for a job. It frankly sounds like blackmail.

It went nowhere because it’s the government. They don’t work in a speedy manner even if young kids are getting molested. They drink their coffees, look at the papers stacked on their desks, and watch the clock until it’s 4 pm and they can go home. It’s not their kids getting molested so whatever. When they get around to looking at the complaint, you can get grey pubic hairs. They do not give a shit. It’s still on somebody’s desk right now under a bunch of other shit.

It went slowly because it involved a white man molesting girls. White men are the most protected class of person on earth. The benefit of the doubt they get is disturbing. You can bet your ass that a black trainer molesting white girls would have seen swifter action.

the other thing that bothers me about the testimony yesterday, more old white guys, like the one that abused them, asking them questions. although Durbin and Blumenthal did a really good job. they were empathetic.

Feinstein needs to retire. she was terrible. and I say this as the bluest of blue democrat.

This pretty much sums it up:

The senators couldn't stop themselves from pontificating. As usual.

The reports of understaffing in that prison are harrowing. Obviously few people are going to care about what happens to Nassar- he was a bad man on the outside and clearly did not make friends on the inside. But if an inmate can shank a prisoner they can shank a guard or a nurse, too.

I would be upset if a guard or nurse got stabbed.

But if Larry Nassar wanted to avoid getting stabbed in prison, there was a super easy way to avoid that. F*** that guy.

Good. I hope he was terrified. I hope he pissed himself in fear.

AP calls this scum “disgraced”? What’s wrong with them? How about “convicted rapist”?

Outrageous how the press minimizes what he did.

Anyone covering for rapists needs to be investigated, and held accountable. No one should be protected from appropriate jail time. No one. FBI should step up already.

I hope every stab would hurts like hell and I hope it lasts for weeks.

Victim of child molester who has dealt with the effects of the abuse every. f'ing. day for most of my life, and I wish I had had a chance to stab him

I understand the impulse to wish harm on convicted offenders, but making prisons more unsafe or miserable than they need to be is counterproductive and beneath us as a society. We don’t use torture for punishment.

You’re right, yet I tried and completely failed to summon the tiniest bit of sympathy for Nasser. Just can’t do it.

Appreciate the outrage, but that’s a headline. The article itself is quite clear about what he did.

There should be some outrage about the FBI coverup for this subhuman monster who relentlessly tortured young athletes. Wasn’t there a thread about a lawsuit against the FBI for their coverup?
