Victims’ Father Lunges at Larry Nassar in Court
A father of two young women who gave victim impact statements at the sentencing hearing of Lawrence G. Nassar was tackled
by law enforcement officials when he rushed at the former sports medicine doctor across a courtroom on Friday.
In addition to the Eaton County hearing, another of his daughters, Morgan, had provided a victim impact
statement about Dr. Nassar’s abuse at an Ingham County Circuit Court hearing, which ended last week.
Last week, more than 150 young women and teenagers publicly confronted Dr. Nassar during a seven-day hearing
in Ingham County Circuit Court, where he had pleaded guilty in November to seven counts of sexual assault.
The man, Randall Margraves, had been standing next to his daughters Lauren
and Madison in Eaton County Circuit Court in Charlotte, Mich., as they gave statements about Dr. Nassar’s sexual abuse.
