13 sexual assault survivors abused by Larry Nassar have filed $130 million in claims against the FBI for failing 'to properly investigate sexual abuse allegations' against the USA gymnastics doctor.
"We spend so much energy and resources encouraging children to come forward when they have been abused, so the fact that people came forward to the most powerful law enforcement agency in the world and were rebuffed — it's a slap in the face," said Jamie White, the attorney representing the victims.
"This is the largest failure on the part of law enforcement in the history of the world as it pertains to the protection of children, and there must be institutional accountability to make sure this doesn’t happen again."The FBI has six months to respond to the claims. If the bureau does not reach a settlement within that timeframe, the women in the case can file a lawsuit in civil court.
