Investigation and Review of the FBI's Handling of Allegations of Sexual Abuse by Former USA Gymnastics Physician Lawrence Gerard Nassar
Report · written 14 July 2021 · released 14 July 2021
Why this matters
The Inspector General found that FBI agents failed to act on allegations against Larry Nassar for more than a year, during which he abused dozens more victims, and later made false statements about it. The report led to congressional testimony by gymnasts and to agent firings. A record of how institutional inertia compounds harm.
