Michigan state lawmakers on Thursday released the results of an inquiry into Michigan State University’s handling of the Larry Nassar sexual assault case, criticizing school officials for failing to protect the victims.
The report by a Michigan House of Representatives committee specifically blames the university for a poor investigation into a complaint filed by victim Amanda Thomashow against Nassar in 2014, which erroneously found no wrongdoing by the disgraced physician.
The committee also proposed a series of reforms and legislation meant to ensure that a doctor in Nassar’s position could not carry out such abuse in the future.
