I know this is not a new story and I get the girls not wanting to say anything. But come on ......

quote:

USA Gymnastics paid former Olympic medalist McKayla Maroney in December 2016 to not speak publicly about longtime team doctor Larry Nassar’s sexual abuse, according to a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Wednesday.

Larry Nassar is a POS, and USA Gymnastics made themselves complicit by covering up what he did.

What happened to McKayla Maroney must have been traumatic, but then she decided to take hush money instead of alerting other young girls and their parents to danger.

Does she have to give the money back?

This many years down the road, she should split the money evenly with every other girl that happened to after her.

If she got paid in 2016 I don't think there was subsequent abuse?

Maybe I'm reading it incorrectly

She was abused prior to 2016. Her peak was what, at least 5 years ago.

Candidly, this is the way business is done in practically all business sectors. Graft, payola, extortion, bribery etc. are all as old as, well, spoken language.

People on the whole are corrupt and people on the whole will put their convictions aside when money is a factor. There isn't a damn thing we can do to change it.

It needs blowing up. This is near Sandusky like. Female gymnasts at their youngest are fricking GIRLS. Not just the Olympic level but the ones who are the rising stars? How old are those girls when they were first exposed to this fricker?

Coaches and parents are at fault too. Who allows their 12 year old girl to have her groin treated or hamstring or glute ALONE in a room with no chaperone?

I as a nurse give no IM injections to kids without a parent there and if anybody acts hesitant I usually have a female RN do it and I owe them the next old man catheter.

Anybody who repeatedly puts themselves in that type situation is raising major red flags.

Or maybe she did in private. You think she never uttered a word of this to anyone until today?

Great question. We will probably find out in court. Her taking hush money makes her an accomplice. Civil liability for her inaction may be yuge.

This is just as stupid as saying Penn St or Baylor should get the death penalty or just close the institutions down. Just a stupid way of thinking.
