An independent review found that the FBI was repeatedly that Nassar was sexually abusing young gymnasts and did not follow up
The report found that back in 2015, after an internal review, USA Gymnastics reported a number of incidents of sexual abuse to the FBI in Indianapolis, and though there was a bit of “limited follow-up” there was no other activity for eight months afterward, during which Nassar was still sexually abusing children.
The 119-page report by the Department of Justice Inspector General also found that in addition to doing nothing with the Larry Nassar investigation, the FBI also lied their asses off during the investigation and one was even trying to cozy“Confronted by their mistakes, two FBI officials lied during interviews to cover up their errors, the report said.
And for allowing hundreds of girls to get molested while they did absolutely nothing, the FBI says that they are awfully sorry and will try to investigate crimes the next time someone tells them that a crime is happening: “In a statement on Wednesday, the FBI acknowledged the findings of the report, calling the handling of the Nassar file ‘inexcusable and a discredit to this organisation. We will take all necessary steps to ensure that the failures of the employees outlined in the report do not happen again,’ the agency said.”
