Larry Nassar, who served as USA Gymnastics’ longtime team physician, is facing more allegations that he sexually assaulted the women under his care. Three-time Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman, and member of the 'Fierce Five' squad that took gold medals in London, spoke about the abuse during an interview on 60 Minutes set to air Sunday (November 12) night. The revelations come about a month after her teammate McKayla Maroney made similar accusations against Nassar.
Nassar served as team physician for USA Gymnastics from 1996-2015. After firing Nassar, USA Gymnastics waited five weeks before they alerted the FBI to reports that he had sexually assaulted the young girls in his care. According to USA Today at least 140 women have claimed Nassar sexually assaulted them. Raisman told 60 Minutes that she spoke with the FBI about the allegations following the Rio Olympics in 2016.
Raisman told 60 Minutes that she is "angry" and "really upset" and wants "to create change" so that young girls "never, ever have to go through this."
