I hope they do quit. IMO, they are as culpable as Nassar. It reminds me of Penn State. Tipperary Jan 2018 #3

I hope they all rot in their sewer. They need to share the jail cell with him as accomplices. They were his look outs while he committed the rapes and assaults.

20 years of complaints and over 150 females assaulted.

Who knows where some of those women would be today if they weren't raped by nassar. Some quit, one (and I suspect more) purposely injured herself so she wouldn't have to train with him.

USAG has admitted dragging its feet on alerting the authorities when it learned of abuse allegations against Nassar in 2015.

Multiple molestation complaints from young athletes against the physician between 1997 and 2014 were ignored by MSU.

They are all designated reporters. End of story. I hope the gymnasts all hire great lawyers and send them all to the klink, and keep them away from kids forever. Remove any certifications or licences they hold to be near children.
