Ex-gymnastics doc Larry Nassar allegedly pays gangbangers for protection with ‘sexual favors’
SUMMARY
Larry Nassar, the disgraced sports doctor convicted of sexually abusing hundreds of gymnasts, reportedly relied on gang members for protection while imprisoned in a Florida federal penitentiary. An inmate, Grace Pinson, claimed Nassar paid cash and provided "sexual favors" to Mexican gang members. Nassar, who faced a near-fatal stabbing in July 2021, was described as a "scared little church mouse" by Pinson. Despite the protection, he was eventually transferred to a federal prison in Pennsylvania. The Bureau of Prisons and Nassar did not comment on these claims. Nassar is serving a lengthy sentence for his crimes.
