Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman is suing the U.S. Olympic Committee and USA Gymnastics for their alleged role in the Larry Nassar sexual abuse case. In the lawsuit, she claims both organizations could have done more to stop the former doctor’s abuse.
More than 260 women and girls have accused Nassar of sexual abuse.
The suit came on the same day a male victim alleged Nassar abused him in a different lawsuit. Jacob Moore claims he went to the former doctor for a shoulder injury in 2016, and was sexually abused and harassed.
Moore’s sister, Kamerin — who is a former U.S. National Team gymnast — told a court room in January she and her brother were sexually abused by Nassar under the guise of medical treatment.
